I'm not going to advocate for anything (right now :-)

But I will say that I have friends who shoot all their work email to an
internal INN server.

This allows them to use a nntp client to browse the mail at a later date
and to search for things.

This might allow for a "hybrid" approach but I'll bet it all falls apart
when someone who's reading a post via NNTP tries to respond.  I'd be
that it would try to post instead of email.  If you could get to email
then everything would "just work".

but I'd stick with email, myself.  mh is my friend.
