There's a lot of difference in threading and sorting by subject. In any

Linux/Unix e-mail list you'd know what I mean. ;)
I've never seen a "forum" that didn't make me scream, and that includes
gmail.
Read the man page on mutt. It's the best e-mail reader there is bar none.
Bit of a learning curve though.
I used to use pine and tin. When I discovered Netscape (.9!) I liked it
better. Xterms are good for some things and not for others.

What would proper threading mean?
This is proper threading, with >s added depending on the depth. Tabbing
in isn't the same thing.
for me the email from this list, comes nested [it doesn't look much
different than the online version]
I filter into a folder with some other groups

I feel your pain...
In terms of email lists though an e-mail reader like mutt is the only way
one can read a voluminous e-mail list. Using Gmail would be very
problematic as it doesn't do proper threading or replies on text based
e-mail lists.

What's the advantage of using a mail client anyway?
You can configure it pretty much any way you want. You can see a LOT of
headers at once and decide what you want to read and what's crap. You
can keep your mail on your own machine where evil-doers probably won't
have access to it. It just LOOKS better.
I just counted. I have 26 mail and news accounts, and I can look at
anything in any one of them within seconds, with no need to go to a mess
of different web sites.
I run 4 email accounts through the gmail browser, it's the other G stuff
that gives me fits with sign in
Only FOUR? <guffaw>
