You need to expand the thread - usually has a "+" or "-" for expand/contract
threads, and yes depending on the discussion generated for each post, they can
get lost in the depth of it.

It is the decision of the user whether they want a reply by email - and usually
they would use a fake email address as you say, to prevent spam, or reduce it at
least.

Why do people want "private" replies to posts when a whole hoarde of people (the
group's members) can help out with their suggestions?
