I’ve looked at a lot of forum software, and most of the open-source ones are
pretty poor* in terms of UI and usability.
Discourse is very good as a web app, although its email integration doesn’t
work that well IMHO, so it’s not really a direct replacement for a mailing list.
If I were proposing something, I’d propose groups.io <http://groups.io/>.
(Which is also not open source, sorry.)

comes to mind.
