Randy, that was just an example. There are many mods that will accomplish exactly what you mentioned. Here are just a few more examples that I found, there are many more if you search some more:

And if you demand a feature not covered by the pre-existing mods, there is an active community that could program it. The bottom line is you would not feel the difference using Gmail.

Obviously all of this takes a bit more work than an out-of-the-box solution like Yahoo, but a forum is way more efficient in keeping a shared knowledge base. Just think about all the valuable posts that are uncategorized and practically unsearchable in AB Yahoo and compare it to, say, the Tradestation forums.
