Yeah, given the amount of trouble we've had around that one, I would
strongly advise you not to use it.

Another option is to read it through the web interface and use the
"resend to me" functionality once you want to reply to something, and
then reply to that through your normal email. It's not the most
convenient workflow, but if you mostly read and only very seldom post,
it works.
