Just using thread mode was "good enough" for me.
Understandable anyone would find it weird. Mailing lists are actually a very janky retarded hack for not using a proper Usenet newsgroup. Usenet uses a very similar format to email but properly made for forum type discussions. It died all the way back in 1991 in an event knows as Eternal September, when AOL normie floodgates opened and spam began. Usenet was open for everyone to post. Nothing like captcha either. Got spammed to death. Before that, Usenet was pretty much exclusive to academic and high tech professionals. Gives an idea of how far the internet* has been going downhill. Though I don't see why not use private/isolated newsgroups instead of mailing lists.

* More like computer networks in general because Usenet also predates Internet. It used UUCP over telephone dial up before the NNTP over the Internet.
