[ELECTRON] forums v. mailing lists

[Simon Yuill]

The mailing list is archived here:

http://lists.electronclub.org/pipermail/members/

I have amended the signatures for emails on this list so they will now
include this link at the foot of each email as well.

Will update mailman when I get a chance.

best wishes
Si
