I use the GMail web client which reads very well, especially since I
put a filter on emails to and from *...@postgresql.org to auto-archive
them and label them "PostgreSQL".  That means none of them appear in
my inbox, but I can just click on the PostgreSQL label to list them.

A problem only comes when there have been over 100 emails in a thread,
which then puts further emails into another grouping, usually
beginning with "Re: "  Not generally a big issue though.

I had a look at the Google Groups, but it's so littered with spam that
I found it far less accessible.
