Mailing list access to Discourse

Hello,

I am involved in a discussion about moving an existing mailing list to Discord.
Personally I am all for it, but some people prefer to continue using use the mailing list experience and have concerns about how well Discourse manages it. For example:

I use the email interface to groups.io and I find that email to the groups.io group
usually have broken references headers and the threading is broken because of
this. I also see lots of replies to list and to me as well.

Does Discourse handle these issues better?

Thank you.
