Absolutely, some things carry over from the 20th Century because they
work. There are 21st Century applications that make email lists work
even better. Like many here, I filter with Thunderbird. It would work
better if everyone used a [product tag] in the Subject line, but it
isn't onerous as it is.
The mailbox analogy is a good one. Forums are necessary with a large
community with a wide number of interests. But not for a relatively
focused group like Elecraft.
I'm only posting as this thread is becoming a de facto poll. My choice
would be to leave the list alone.
