I like e-mails for the reasons you have given. However, between the two I'ld take forums if the forum is well designed do to the organizational quality of forums. Fact that between school, work, and visiting family, I don't have one computer where my e-mails rest. I do like things organized into threads, where I can look at what interests me and not waste my time on things that don't concern me but get sent out to the list anyway. Browsing around today I found this: "If you monitor forums, you will be sent new posts in the form of an email, with a link to the new message. You can monitor forums by clicking "Monitor Forum" in any given discussion forum." Sounds like the best of both worlds to me. Any comments? Regards, Robert > Just a quick question...
