If the threading doesn't look good, it's a problem of your mail client. There's no difference in threading between newsgroups and mail unless some of the people on the list use certain Microsoft programs which don't add the correct headers for threading. I'm sure, Eudora is able to thread this list like a newsreader. And it should have filters/rules, so you don't need to set up an extra account (although using a different account for mailing lists isn't bad, anyway ;-). F.i. I simply use one of the headers in each mail to filter all mails for this mailing list in one folder setup just for it. You need to make a clear distinction between mailing lists and newsgroups. You can only read mailing lists with a newsreader if there is a newsserver which gets the mailing list messages piped to/from. That's obviously what TPC has done, it's not standard. So, don't confuse "groups" and "lists".
