But I still want to get certain threads delivered to my mailbox, so I 
suffer thru all the ones I don't read.  Where if I subscribe to a forum 
thread, then I get all posts to that thread in my mailbox (how i like 
it) and can click a link in the email that takes me directly to that 
thread (like bugzilla does for its bugs) so I can post.
