It's not an e-mail bulletin board, but Researchgate seems to be quite popular for wet lab questions. IMO the Q&A section of the social network is a bit messy. That said, the quality seems to improve gradually.

FWIW, the remit of CCP4BB, held at jiscmail-central, is describes as: /The CCP4BB mailing list is for discussions on the use of the CCP4 suite, and macromolecular crystallography in general./ Thus wet-lab questions are not off-topic (not that anyone recently described them as such). Having said that, Jiscmail mailing lists are easy to set-up (providing that you can reasonably expect that the mailing list will improve knowledge sharing within the UK centered academic community) and relatively low maintenance. I, for one, would not be entirely unhappy to miss out on questions about lysis. Paul.
