This was where I was confused. I knew there was gateways to and from mailing lists.. I have participated in several securityfocus and other mailing lists that show up on websites and other places all over.

I don't see this argument getting anywhere.. because both mailing lists and forums have a very dedicated user base that will refuse to abandon their tool. Reason and/or logic play no part: They are simply dedicated to their way of doing it (this goes to both sides).

A gateway to/from this forum to the mailing-list is really the best option... I believe.
