I have to agree. Web boards are slow and tedious, they take far longer 
to load into my browser than email takes to arrive, and I don't have the 
time to click-and-load a bunch of folders and messages. If I get busy, I 
never sign on. On the other hand, my email gets sorted as it arrives in 
my inbox and I can quickly scan through the resulting list. I am much 
less likely to participate in a web forum.
