You need to make the following configuration changes if you want it to work right now:

- Site Settings
  - enable `reply by email enabled`
  - enable `email in`
  - disable `find related post with key`
  - depending on your mailinglist, disable `block auto generated emails`

- Category
  - set the `Custom incoming email address` to `list@example.com`
  - enable `Accept emails from anonymous users with no accounts`
