What I like most about mailing lists is the ability to tightly focus the topics. What I like about forums is the large number of categorizations possible. My main platform allows threading of headers in email, but it fails when threads are forked or subject/title is changed. I am strongly in favour of putting general and support lists on forum mostly, and lower-volume action-based stuff mostly in mailing lists. It has not been mentioned, or I missed the comment, but I am not a fan of irc as an interface. Just my 2 cents. I guess forums with an autosubscribe feature for questions a user has originated or replied to works great for most things.
