" Threading means a tree of replies, not a linear list of all the responses." my bad, i'm comparing it to what gmail gives me since that is what it seems most use- and i haven't seen a difference. with all of the reply-quoting or whatever you call it, it is quite hard to see anything in here but a linear list of responses.
"/me points at mail client So why do I need to have a web browser doing it ?" I don't get this but whatever. "If done right, and provides a proper email gateway to it (i.e. not like adodeforum.com does), it shouldn't matter if you see a web site and I see my mail client. Best of both worlds." absolutely right, that was the idea behind my second email. d.
