+ 1 Why not have both? (beside possible spammers)...
I use the CF-Talk list constantly and it's email- and forum-based. Messages go to both email and the forum. Does the forum have "subscribe to this thread" capability? What the URL for the forum, anyway?

If the forum is prefered by some users, that's OK, but I don't think it is a good idea to kill the mailing lists, because there are many users that prefer reading a mailing list. The forums will *always* be much less accessible for the blind users for example so it would be much helpful if both ways of communicating will coexist. If some of the users won't like the forum, they would be able to use the mailing lists, while if other users wouldn't want to receive the emails from the mailing list they could just unsubscribe, so the mailing lists won't hurt anyone.
