I think that it definitely lacks some of the joys of the mailing list:

 
FYI, it has a very good "mailing list" mode. I use it that was >90% of

Yes, it's the one saving grace of a Discourse forum, you can use it by
E-Mail and it behaves quite nicely with a text mode E-Mail client such
as mutt so you can keep threads separate, follow sub-threads, etc.

Not quite as good as this list gatewayed to usenet though, there's
really nothing so good as usenet for proper discourse (!).
