Ahh - I see this was more about changing the list to a message board 
format.

We also will be keeping the list email based. As several have mentioned 
before, it is very easy to set up your email client program to filter 
individual messages to separate folders based on words in the subject 
line or body. I use this extensively to handle the huge email load I 
receive daily. [Elecraft] list posts go to the 'Elecraft List' folder, 
and even K3 posts can go to a 'K3' sub folder. None of the list postings 
are ever seen in my main inbox.

Also, for those who prefer to read the list in a web based format, we 
have been providing this service for a long time. See:
http://www.ac6rm.net/mailarchive/html/elecraft-list/    It does much of 
what people are asking for.

You can click on [Date] to read each days  postings sorted by time and 
date. [Thread] sorts by thread etc. I use the [Date] sorted list to 
display each posting just by its subject line. I then only need to click 
on the posting subject lines that I actually want to read and I am not 
overloaded by email headers etc. If you prefer to read the list this 
way, just set your list options to 'no email' to stop individual mail 
delivery but still be allowed to post. (I'll post instructions for this 
next.)
