It might just be OSX, I can't reproduce the issue on FreeBSD 9.0 nor
Debian/kFreeBSD 6.0.  Any OpenBSD/NetBSD users care to chime in?

No.  I can't stand web browsers and logging into websites.  I'll never
endorse commercial interests when working on Free Software, either.

Usenet would be ideal, but it's mostly dead nowadays but everybody still
has email (more or less, HTML mail isn't appropriate for *nix-based
development)

For mailing lists, consider a proper Unix MUA with threading support[1]
an essential part of your development environment (as important as your
$EDITOR).  With Unix pipes, messages flow between inbox/working
directory easily (via tools like patch/git-am).  This also lets me use
the same $EDITOR for both writing code and emails.
