Would Tony still be able to comment from the main BBS if I post in a mail list


It can't, WWWThreads is too limited to support that. But with the maillist you don't need the BBS anymore. Tony can browse the messages from the comfort of his own threaded mailreader.

If people really must have a web based BBS interface ( i still don't see any advantage to such an interface) then what we need to use is one of the numerous packages that supports a web interface as well as a maillist or NNTP interface. I.E one message database with multiple front ends.

I'll see if i can hunt down some URLs
