Yes, I like forums and Yahoogroups very much...if only from a history point of view.As a historian and record keeper
it would drive me crazy when GMs wouldn't post Diplomacy results in Cat23.
So if only for that aspect its a good thing too.

Absolutely is the case. That was one of our biggest goals in a new
system, to make it so ppl can play (and participate) totally by email.
Many companies block gaming sites, ppl don't want to open gaming sites
at work, etc. But email is simple and inconspicuous.

So all you have to do, is go to the site (www.diplomaticcorp.com) link
up your account to a password/login. Then once you have a login, you'll
be able to log in to the message board, and subscribe to anything you
want. This is actually better than the Yahoo Group, because in the
group you have to subscribe to all or nothing... Now you can just
subscribe to the commonspace and your individual games, and your mailbox
won't be flooded with adjudications of 25 unrelated games.

Once you're logged into the message board, there is a Subscriptions link
at the top, where you can set which forums you'd like to receive in your
mail.

In fact, this is precisely the crux of my concern. I absolutely despise
every message boarding system I've ever seen. If I am able to handle
things (not just the games, but the discussions as well) via email
still, then I don't have any problem. I was under the understanding
that wasn't the case.

Thanks for the clarification.

world. In fact, that's usually the thing that has.

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
