FYI, it has a very good "mailing list" mode. I use it that was >90% of
the time, and file both posts from Discourse and posts from python-list

Yes, it's the one saving grace of a Discourse forum, you can use it by
E-Mail and it behaves quite nicely with a text mode E-Mail client such
as mutt so you can keep threads separate, follow sub-threads, etc.

Not quite as good as this list gatewayed to usenet though, there's
really nothing so good as usenet for proper discourse (!).

Don't forget you can also read this list (and thousands of others) via
the NNTP server at news.gmane.io. There really is no better way to
read lists that with a good news client.
