Hello,
Just as we have Mailman as the software for our list, could we have a similar FOS software that allows web based replying inside the message itself, like many other sites where the user logs in and replies to the messages using a reply button. The reply box has the original text which is edited manually by the user in the browser itself. Many forums use this method but I don't know if there is a FOSS for that.
If it happens, users of non confirming email devices can use their device browsers to log into the web version and reply in the correct interleaved pattern.

Won't subscribing this list to Gmane achieve that?

Either: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.mumbai (Actions->Follow Up)
Or http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.mumbai (Reply link at the bottom right of the post)
...however, i doubt people inconsiderate enough to top post would bother with gmane (or any other 'real' solution) because they feel entitled to top-post.
