Are you sure ? I find personally a mailing is much easier.  You get the 
messages with your regular mail, you can sort them to a special inbox folder 
to read them when you have time.  Whereas a forum you need to start your web 
browser, generally wade through some pages to get to the location you want, 
log on, use some user interface that changes from forum to forum.

Searching a mailing list is also easy : google or some searchable mail 
archive.

Adding another channel is counter productive.  Focus all data in one location 
and optimize that medium to the max.
