Having just spent the last half hour deleting 30-odd messages from my inbox, I feel 
honour-bound to contribute :o)

(1) I use a 56k modem, and it takes ages to read and then clear my emails every few 
hours. An up-to-date thread-indexed site would be a great alternative.
(2) I had to delete a number of emails to unblock my inbox, so this may have been said 
already: why can't postings be added instantly to the archive? 
(http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ and I'd be grateful if you looked at 
/msg89232.html)
(3) The list works because we feel obliged to read other people's postings while we 
desperately wait for someone to answer ours; sometimes we realise we can help someone 
else while we wait. I think that if thread titles are clear enough, this can still 
work on a thread-indexed site - if you know the subject, jump in and contibute. If 
not, ignore it.
