An email list for this is a *horrible* idea.
You're proposing that
something that could receive hundreds and hundreds of emails a day
Well, that remains to be seen. In any case, as I replied earlier, both
talk page and e-mail list are options, and we could switch between
them, or offer both, as necessary.
Email is great as an input method because - as pointed out - it's less
scary. The email should then be immediately rerouted back onto the
wiki, because the wiki is The Right Place to have article-specific
discussions. Contact information can be trimmed out if necessary, but
I don't see that you can both respect people's reputation and hide
their private information at the same time.
