Glad to hear it. Thanks.

In the Preferences/Emails section discuss.python.org has a choice right 
at the bottom under the Activity Summary section saying:

     Mailing list mode
     Enable mailing list mode
     This setting overrides the activity summary.
     Muted topics and categories are not included in these emails.

I have this ticked. It is not available on discuss.scientific-python.org.

In this "mailing list mode" choice, you receive _all_ unmuted messages, 
not the selections in the earlier choices, just like a mailing list.  
With this ticked I deal with the forum almost entirely from my mail 
reader.

The other email settings are not enough to provide "all messages".
