There's a Discourse forum over at discuss.python.org. I use it in
"mailing list mode" and do almost all my interactions via email, exactly
as I do for python-list. [...]
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.
Some of this kind of thing will be because the Doscourse devs, as you
might imagine, are forum/web-first people while you and I are
email-first people. So they won't notice email shortcomings as readily.
That said, they do seem very engaged and willing to chase and fix bugs
if they can be identified.
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.
There's certainly still an issue where some messages are not reliably
sent via email when the inbound needs-spam-review filter flags a
message/post, particularly the first post; they're fixing that right now
:-)
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.
One day everything will be perfect!
