We use per-project mailing lists for this. It works fine most of the
time; sometimes people start sending private mail instead of using the
mailing list, but in these cases, I just reply to the mailing list,
with a complete copy of the mail cited, and then -- without offending
anybody :) -- everybody is informed.

POP3 would be enough for that.

Mailing lists would be enough for that.

No answer from me for this one. But is IMAP the answer?
