I've seen some topics on this, but not recently. Is there a mod out there that lets phpBB act as both a bulletin board and email list? With posts auto emailed (to those who ask for it) and the ability to email the forum and have it come up as a post?
My potential participant base is split between those that love forums (like myself) and hate forums and only want mail lists. I'm hoping to accommodate both...
I understand mail2forum used to do that, but it's not compatible with current phpBB and seems to have been abandoned.

Have a vote, majority wins or, as team leader, choose and they'll have to live with it.

Re: phpBB as an email list
This is an often requested, and quite useful, feature. There are several MOD's to do this linked from my phpBB 3.1.x extension request:

Re: phpBB as an email list
Two are abandoned and one was never made further than an alpha release. They should not be used on a live board.
