But what advantages does this list have over a forum? A forum is just this but better and more user friendly!

In my experience, a Yahoo forum is just like this except that Yahoo appends a load of drivel to the foot of each posting (I have copied a sample below), and does something to the headers to mess up the threading in my mail client.

The friendliness, of course, depends on the participants, not on the software.
