Hi Robert, I can see that having both systems at the same time would be nice, but how would you solve the problem about "catagory", "topics", "threads", "subjects".. in a mailing list you only have a "subject". so if we parsed the mailist and got the forum in sync then all posts would just come in one catorory (not much of a win there).
