Erm, he probably uses a email client to follow this email list like I
guess a lot (most?) people do, usenet newsgroups are a different thing
to email. Though I understand from other posts here over the years that
there are services that present mailing lists like these and newsgroups

Not sure he has. The In-Reply-To points to his own previous emails, not
