If it works the same way as the "someone has replied" message, you will only get one announcement until you visit the thread. For example, if three people reply to one of my threads, I only get one message for the first one. If I visit it, I'll get another one for the next member who replies afterwards. I guess that the same mechanism works with the forum feature. OK, fur... another "give them an inch"... request... :-) I think this forum feature is not very useful (is anyone using it??), but a cool feature would be to move it to individual threads! I often read something interesting, and it would be great to get notified if someone replies there. The only way so far would be to post a reply ("Sorry folks, I don't have anything to say here, but I just want to be on the mailing list...") - I'm NOT doing that... But a little button "notify me if someone replies here" would be wonderful...
