I hear ya, Bob! I find that going to the archive by date is very convenient for monitoring the list, but of course you can't just point and click to reply from there. Honestly, I wouldn't know where to start to build such an interface. 

Cheers,
Roger

I absolutely love them from the plethora of information they provide and the incredible support from the subscribees (is that a word ?).  I hate them for taking so much time to read, and doubly hate them when twits post totally useless drivel.  I was going to say the latter know who they are, but suspect that is not the case, and maybe I am a culprit with this post !!

The least I'd like to do is click on an index item and jump to the message, but I'm sure being able to selectively display threads would be of benefit  too.  I know there have been various readers built in the past, and of course there is also the archive and search capabilities on-line, but so far they've all fell a slice or two short of a picnic.
