Hi Sophie, I prefer the mailing list. I can download all mails and then I can answer/read them offline, e. g. during a train run or just sitting on a bench in a park and enjoy the nice weather. The internet connection is not always well. So I would have problem to anwser/read the mails then. If I am back at home, I can send the anwsered mails. I use Thunderbird for the mails. In this program I can mark them with different tags. This is very useful for me.
