That's trivial compared to the ongoing per-message cost of reading a forum vs a mailing list. That's why I read mailing lists and ignore web forums - they just take too much time to read. All of which is, of course, supremely irrelevant to the subject under discussion here. We have both mailing lists and forums so people can choose which to use.
