IMO it makes > sense for a MUA community to prefer a mailing list over a forum. +1 for email. Discord and forums have their place for discussions but email is the true democracy because it's accessible to all on every platform and one does not require a constant online connection to use it. If the forums die then all the knowledge there goes with it. It's a central point of failure. Email succeeds because in many respects it's distributed.
