 me being crazy, I prefer a general-purpose solution that helps everyone)

+Maybe I'm not using ikiwiki right, and I'll appreciate any advice on this, but
+it seems to me that using ikiwiki instead of a mailing lists has some major
+weaknesses which I fail to overcome, but which may be possible to fix, maybe
+using some client-side software.
+
+The problem: Mailing lists give me things I need but can't find here, so I'm
+failing to track the [[/forum]], [[/todo]] and so on:
+
+- With MLs I can easily see what I read, to what I replied, mark things with
+  colors and labels if my MUA supports it
+- With MLs I can easily send a reply, without going through git. Reading and
+  writing happen together in the same dedicated UI
+
+I know I can subscribe to [[forum]] and to individual posts' comment feeds, but
+it's not the same - I don't see the tree of comments like in e-mail. Either I
+sort by creation time (not seeing evidence of more recent replies) or by
+last-edited time, or perhaps by last comment (then busy pages cause less busy
+ones quickly go deep into the list and are never seen by the user).
+
+Is there an existing solution to this?
+
+Random ideas, maybe direction for a solution:
+
+- Make client software which takes a local git clone of a wiki and operates on
+  it, while the user sees an MUA-like interface
+- Add some plugin to ikiwiki that can cooperate with an MTA: listen to e-mail
+  on a mailing list with specific formatting and put the content into a wiki.
+
+What do you think? How do you keep track of the forum etc. in the same way it's
+done with mailing lists?
