I don't know which one is best because although I've tried, I've never found
a compelling enough reason to keep using one. I really don't see a benefit
to an email list as an RSS feed. FA might be, but I probably wouldn't use
it.

Footer

Not really. I even forget the archives link is there.

Not really. Maybe ads could go in the message footer. That I don't look at.
:-)

No thanks.

The only thing I've thought of is that the web site could be a more
full-fledged forum style interface. It's getting close, but useability isn't
great and it's not the common forum interface like vbulletin or FuseTalk.
