Hi Ronald,

If you are _subscribed_ to the mailing list, you should be getting 
individual messages delivered to your e-mail address as they occur on 
the list.  There should be no need to _download_ anything.  A message 
appears in the in-box and one reads it and if interested, replies to it 
with the Reply button on the tool bar.

I am having a hard time understanding how you are using the mailing-list 
in some different way.

Are you _subscribed_ as described on
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
?

I am currently using Thunderbird, but have used Evolution in exactly the 
way I described.
