Hm, back in the olden days it was possible to view forums threads through an email browser. Does anyone know if this is still possible and if so how. It'd be much faster than loading webpages all the time plus replies are automatically sent email stylee.

I think it is the 'newsgroup server' that is needed.
The administrator or maybe a moderator may be able to help me whoever you are. It should be listed on one of the forum settings pages.
