Title: Forum: reading via email Post by: mndrix on December 06, 2010, 08:02:39 PM Is it possible to receive email each time a message is posted to the forum?
In my profile, under Notifications and Email, it suggests that I can click the "notify" button in various places on the forum to receive email notifications about new posts. Unfortunately, I don't see a "notify" button anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

It looks like the forum's RSS support is decent, so I'll try monitoring it with a feed reader. Thanks for the info.

Is this something that the mods would be willing to turn on? I would even consider paying you a few btc to do it ;).

This forum's RSS feed only includes the first couple paragraphs of each post, but I've found it enough content to know which posts I want to read directly on the forum and which can be muted.
