We are miscommunicating.  You think I'm talking about protocols,
whereas I'm really talking about the essence and the nature of
communications.  Email and news groups are fundamentally different
mediums, no matter what protocols are used to conduct those
communications.  E.g., there's no private messages in a news group.
