When reading the mailing list via the web I do tend to read through
GMane more than MARC but I can't state why I have that preference.
It just happens.  Maybe I prefer white backgrounds over black ones?

Surprisingly few web mailing list interfaces are actually usable for
reading threads. Gmane is, MARC isn't (you don't see the list of
references and replies to the current mail, and the next/prev in thread
links somehow don't seem to be very reliable). That's a killer feature
for me, if MARC had that I'd have preferred it (I like black background
and dislike frames).

From what I guessed, MARC groups threads by _title only_, while GMane
seems to parse In-Reply-To:/References: headers for threading.
