Mailing lists push the messages to you, whereas you have to pull
messages from newsgroups.  Newsreaders tend to have better threading
support and older articles are still available in newsgroups for some
time without having to search the archives.  Plus news is less
wellknown, which means less HTML mailing lamers.
