I usually read them as "individual mails", as Y!G calls it, but when I am travelling, it is impossible to follow any thread by GMX's webmail when some 200 messages from several different lists hit the same inbox every day. I then have a least the possibility to go into an internet cafe, log into Y!G and read up and participate on each or any of the lists. However, I think the difference between a webboard and a mailing list is being discussed away. Those are mailing lists that also offer web access. Different animal. -- Cheers, Thomas.
