IMO, the best solution are newsgroups. What I dislike with web-based communication (webmail, webforums) is that webbrowsing is not as flexible as using a specialized software and that you are not free in choosing your communication software apart from choosing a webbrowser – you have to live with the webmail/webforum software installed on the server, independently of whether you like it or not. > > I don't think that yet another variant would help us much.
