I think that you need a custom module for this. You can use comment hook 
to send an email to the mailing list (but you need to create it in a 
costum module), but the problem is how to retrieve the messages from the 
mailinglist. Your mailinglist manager need to store every message in a 
single message. You need to create a "language tags" for these messages, 
because your custom module need to recognize, for example, the nid of 
the comment, where the comment message body start and where it ends.And 
some other things.

If you don't know how to write a costum module for what do you want to 
realize, ask to a freelancer (like me).
