I'd be happy with a forum that allows subscription to threads, or email notification of responses to one's own posts on the forum. There are a few things I like about the forum approach. One is the ability to scroll back through conversations (to remember who said what, as opposed to the convoluted quoting that bloats email correspondence). The other is that contemporary forum software usually permits use of html style additions that permit more nuanced composition of posts and replies. However, there's something to be said for popping open the laptop and finding the latest digest ready to read, too...
