Implementing forum mailing list/nntp is not an easy task and users will never use the feature. Which probably explain why other bulletin board packages do not offer it.

I guess I'm not at all surprised by the difficulty in implementing it, since I have run across tons of requests for this kind of feature in various web forum support boards.

But now you have implemented it - does it really feel like your users simply don't use the feature?

Is it just lack of imagination on the part of users, or is there really few applications that make sense for a combined mailinglist/webforum? Or is there some practical details that just make it not as smooth an integration in real life as one might hope for? (Of course, this is a little circular, a feature that isn't used much inevitably won't be as smooth and high-performing as a broadly used feature.)
