+Yes indeed, I also like mailing lists for their simplicity and speed.
+RSS is good to follow a forum.
+
+Another suggestion I would like to make is mailing list integration.
+An email to the mailing list would also be posted on the forum and a
+posting on the forum gets also posted on the mailing list. A
+forum/mailing list like described is for example the Nginx forum
+http://forum.nginx.org/ ,although that one is based on phorum and not
+phpbb like Magiea's forum.
+
+A google search showed two options for mailing list integration with phpbb:
+1) m2f (mail2forum) http://mail2forum.com/
+2) foum-mailing list bridge
+http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=2099210&start=15
+
+(disclaimer: I have never set up a phpbb forum or any other forum, so
+I have no idea if those modules work. I am just a user.)
+
+H.B.
