Of course, there is yet another way.   Read the lists online:

  http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/current/freebsd-questions.html

Message on the list can be replied to by saving the "Raw E-Mail"
in the appropriate way for your email client.

I quit subscribing to the lists about 5 years ago and exclusively
read them online.
