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

[Mike Watterson (K3MAW)]

Don,

I do something very similar with my gmail account.  I don't use an email
client, just the web interface.  Having the Elecraft emails its own folder
makes it very easy to scan the subjects for topics of interest.
