It looks like you're using Outlook Express. Unfortunately, OE doesn't show
mailing lists like this as it would a newsgroup. That is, it does turn the
message traffic into the sorts of threads you'd get on from a USENET server.  

Let me recommend this:

1.  On comcast, you can set up 4 more email addresses. Create  a special
address you use just for mailing lists.

2. Get a copy of a newgroup reader that also supports email (like Mozilla or
Agent) to handle the traffic on this mailing list.

I use Agent to read this list and it acts just like any real newsgroup that I
process through Agent.
