Mailing lists. Sending things by post was easy, quick, and cheap. One of the most overlooked aspects of zine culture these days is the letters section, which is basically like any fandom online forum. But by mail.

So if I wanted to reply to a commentary another fan sent in, I would write a letter back to the zine editor. Like, "In response to Jo Schmo's letter about Vulcan culture in the March 1970 issue... [my opinions]" and then that would probably be printed in a later issue. And Jo very well might respond to me and a few other other commentors who wrote in reply, creating a chain of comments that could go on for months.

That sounds so, so awesome, in a weird slo-mo way :D

I think comic books and SF&F magazines (the kind that would publish short stories and serialized novels) used to do the letter column, too, and people would have the same kind of conversations with each other.
