Not me.

Whats inconvenient about email?

If its your tool (you use an email agent that can't thread messages, for
example, but your news agent can), have you considered gatewaying the
list to a site-local newsgroup? You wouldn't even know its really a
mailing list if you did this. Its been years since I've set this up, but
at the time I found a simple nntp server designed for exactly this, and
it worked very well.
