It is also much easier to miss related msgs in different fora/topics  
you don't subscribe to.  My mailer threads and I pretty much ignore  
threads I know I don't care about, or simply skim.  Mailing list does  
have its advantages. And I get it on my blackberry...

Nah, simple mail and in plain text works best for me :)
