According to dllud (who currently moderates the Replicant mailing list), having comment on the new blog system is useful.
Since we want to simplify things, we want to send the comments directly to the Replicant mailing list.
So a way that can work (suggested by dllud) can be to have the text sent to the mailing list first, to get the Message ID, and then to publish the blog post with a link to reply to the message and with the Message ID in it.
An example given by dllud is public inbox that has a Message ID (reply to) in a mailto link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240429121620.1186447-17-rppt@kernel.org/#R
Another way also suggested by dllud could be to generate the message id, send it to the mailing list from the command line and then publish the post, all happening automatically. The code here is more complex though as the mail need to be sent, so the software needs to find the right settings to do that or somehow use a service (that we'd need to maintain) to do that.
