As far as I am concerned: Yes and No. Now I will have to subscribe to
2 mailing lists. But in final analysis, what do you fell more
comfortable with?

I don't like it. I like have a [one or two] mailing list. I archive
it, then I can search for it. Yes, I know, that phpbb can do searches,
but I also like to group things together by topic of interest, by
colour... I like to customize it for myself.
