I have been involved with a forum project for a couple years now, www.pd9soft.com, it has an option where you can subscribe to a forum and get daily updates by mail. I am thinking of reversing it to pull info into the forums, :) Let me get with the leads and I might be able to provide just what both sides want it this longtime debate. I do agree that forums are very nice things, but alas, you do need to go to them if you don’t subscribe. I guess it just depends if you like to read a mail client or a webpage in the end.
