There are times when I wish the Elecraft list was by model (and not just
one big list) and then there are times when I learn things that apply to
my KX3 that would never have been posted to a KX3 list.
... and that reminded me of a tool I used to use called POPFile.
While I used it for spam filtering (it's a Bayesian filter so it learns
to classify mail by example), I'm using similar Bayesian algorithms
built-in to Thunderbird for anti-spam.
What POPFile does that's somewhat unique is that it will classify on
really any criteria, not just good/bad (non-spam vs. spam).
It could be applied to this list to sort it by interest area (portable,
antenna, contesting, firmware, etc.) and with a little training (a few
days) give someone exactly what they'd want.
You'd find it at http://getpopfile.org.
As for implemented/unimplemented features, the list is operated by
QTH.net. They run a whole stack of amateur radio related lists using
Mailman, which is free software. It works reasonably well, but I don't
think QTH.net makes a lot of money on list management, and probably
isn't too motivated to fix issues.
There is the KX3 Yahoo group, but the signal/noise ratio is really kind
of awful, IMHO.

Good answers all, but it's the part in the subscription page that isn't
really working. I think if that were implemented, then I could simply
subscribe to the KX3 thread and be done with it. If not, then I'll probably
just unsubscribve to it all and check manually.
