Broken in the sense that it really doesn't handle mailing lists well.
It's fine for ordinary mail, but has no concept of proper list-aware
threading or of "reply to list" (as distinct from "reply to all"). It
also doesn't support the "select text and quote it in the reply"
feature that's very useful, and not just on lists (it used to allow
this via a Google Labs extension, but that disappeared some time ago).
And it's hard to reply below the quote rather than top-posting (another
thing that used to exist but has now gone).
