Most forum-systems have an email-notification function.
Right, but then you have to check your email and the forum. Double
inefficiency. :-) I do like that forums make it easy to browse past
issues, but they still seem to take way more time than e-mail.
The only forums I have seen that work well(*), is where there is ahuge
community of users. If there aren't many users, quite a long time can
go between posts and responses.

Some web-based e-mail programs work well now days. Anything with
threading will do, I think. I use Gmail with a filter for my mailing
lists, and it works better than anything I've used, except Evolution.
