yes it's available in the lurker but:
o you fall back to bulletin board mode
o It's not real time. You have to wait for the new messages to be
archived.
o you cannot reply on the same screen

Subject: Re: [plug] Mailing List Vs Forms
New users can easily search existing threads.
Instead of asking the question _AGAIN_, the search facility is readily
available to search the archives.
Discussions are threaded.
You can go to a section that interests you and ignore the rest.
You can get these two functionalities from a good mail archiver.
Jijo's lurker interface[1]
gives a very good threaded viewing facility as well as offers the
fastest search i've seen!
