I would also recommend the gmail system as all replies to a particular thread will all be contained in one line item in your inbox. Much easier to manage busy list traffic. I also have a ton of invites, so if anyone wants one, let me know offlist.
That being said - in moderating the Streamer List I know that I personally find it helpful and much easier on everyone if list members keep in mind to --

1. Delete out all but the pertinent part of the message they are replying to.
2. Create new threads if the topic is alltogether unrelated to the active thread.
3. Make sure they 'Reply' to the original thread instead of creating new ones. This last one I think is very important, especially in high traffic situations, because it keeps things from getting fragmented. Thus it is easier for the guy who comes home to a full inbox to weed out things he has no interest in. Quite often I see posts that are a continuation of the same discussion, but with several thread titles.
Anyway, my $0.03
