I am also using the Plone `Discourse` forum in "mailing list mode". It now works quite well but it took some years before reaching this state. For a very long time, my mail replies did not reach the forum reliably. My latest complaint (more than half a year ago): when I had visited the forum via `http` (I did this occasionally to verify my reply has reached the forum), it sometimes thought, I had seen a new message and did not inform me about it via mail. Meanwhile, all replies seem to arrive reliably and I no longer use `http` for access. Therefore, I do not know whether the behavior described above still persists. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
