I wonder if some of the dislike for mailing lists here is due to people
using Mail.app on osx/ios to keep up with discussions. I find that
Thunderbird's mailing list handling is really nice (much better than
Mail.app), since it correctly shows replies as a tree so it's easy to
see which messages reply to which at a glance.
