I've used both phpBB and simplemachines, and far prefer the latter for =
its simpler configuration, administration, and what seem like superior =
spam-fighting capabilities.
The advantages are almost too numerous to list, and if people like =
getting the message via email then the software can be configured to =
include it in the notification emails that are sent out.
Forums are simply superior to mailing lists in almost all respects =
(perhaps all).
- Easier and faster to administer and moderate
- We don't have to wait for emails to be approved and show up
- Conversations are organized better
- Nobody complaining about "top posting", trimming "cruft" and other =
such nonsense
- An easy to search and read public log of all conversations
- Emoticons
- Stars
- Badges
- Bells
- I hear they have whistles too
Pretty please?
Thoughts?

Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also =
sharing with the NSA.
