I'll second that. Most professional communities use mailing
lists/newsgroups. The only part of the fltk online "forums" I think is
lacking is that you can't search the body of the messages. Only the
Subject is searched. (Unless I don't know how to seach the body)

I however prefer using gmail as my mail client. It has excellent
search capabilities and label/filter options. It's great for
subscribing to mailing lists.
