If you have a forum setup that accepts posts over e-mail, can distribute 
to e-mail subscribers while preserving threading, allows ccs to mail 
addresses, and doesn't require a separate login, then there is no reason 
to not go with it from my point of view.

None of the forums I have ever experienced do that, though.
