[Elecraft] Make this email list more manageable - a forum instead?

[Allan Zadiraka]

Since I own a number of Elecraft products, I am very happy with the current
setup.  Separate forums would mean I would have to go to multiple places to
follow the different products.  The Elecraft traffic is a minor part of my
daily email load (~500/day) and I am interested in seeing trends on other
Elecraft products in case I want to evaluate purchasing one.
