Internet forums or web forums are a modern way to do discussion they are similar to a mailing list which allows the people to post comments or messages to others message and be a part of the discussion. The difference is based upon the formatting of both of the thing. When we deliver the message through email then we use mailing list and when we access the message from the web then we use the web forum.

The only real difference is the format. Both the Web Forum and the Mailing List contain the same messages and information. If you prefer to have the messages delivered to you via e-mail, then the Mailing List is for you. If you prefer to access these messages via the web rather than by e-mail, then the Web Forum would be a better choice for you. Please note that if you only check your e-mail occasionally, your e-mail box can fill up with messages from the mailing list. If this is the case, the Web Forum is recommended.
