[R] Newsgroup - another try?

My personal, admittedly selfish, reason for preferring a mailing list 
is that with a mailing list the email comes to me, whereas with a 
newsgroup I have to go get it. Sure, I could probably overcome that, 
but things work well as they are, and I have found newsgroup user 
interfaces to be less convenient.

Threading can be nice, but it's very easy with my email software 
(Eudora) to group all the messages on the same subject together.
