I can set it for new threads only. That's easy. But that then obviates the idea of replying to a thread by email from the list.

Setting up a different list would be a non-starter in my opinion. If people want emails from a forum there are other ways of getting them without creating yet another list.

I'd be happy to discuss this via my email or at the forum itself. There's a place for site suggestions, and that forum does not get posted to the list.

Not to complain or anything... But does anyone else think perhaps this should be taken off list or a separate list be made? My cell has never been so flooded with emails before...

Not to add one more to the flood... but this is an extremely valid point no one initially considered. We have members of this list, which generally gets a pretty light peppering of traffic, and we are going to be spamming them messages from a forum, which is quite likely (due to the nature of webforums) to become much higher traffic and chatty than the email list. Emails are (again, generally) much more considered than forum posts and there is less of a tendency to post trivial/chatty messages to email groups than to forums.

Perhaps we should syndicate new forum threads only to this list, or a completely different list. We should be able to set up nginx.forums list and you can join that if you also would like to get the forum information bridged to your local mail.
