I've some practical experience with Discourse and... I'd say it's
the other way around. Shiny GUI is the paradigm, mail is just a
let's-keep-those-old-goofs-happy afterthought.
If you're wired around mail, it's not enjoyable. Feels like
a second-class citizen to me.
This doesn't sound positive, I know -- but I think the "problem"
might lie at a deeper level and won't be solvable without deeper
analysis (instead of hacking together yet-another-forum).
Just watch the regular conflicts between top-posters and top-post
phobia on other mailing lists: those tensions are cultural, and
can't be addressed "just" by a tool.
I'm not dismissing Todor's insighful initial post -- not in the
least! Actually I think he's very right. But perhaps we need
bridges between cultures and not just between tools. And that
takes deep thinking (and people instead of machines, maybe).
Cheers
