I disagree. I don't want to have to log into some other board to read  
messages. I want them all in one place -- my mailbox. Yes I have the  
various reflectors to which I subscribe split out into separate  
folders automatically but that is an easy thing to deal with.

I too would prefer to keep the reflector the way it is.

All of the major mail readers offer threading for topics. If people  
will properly alter the subject line when they alter a topic this  
works fine. And a BBS has no advantage there either as you won't see  
a new thread if people don't create one.
