hi there,
today i posted 2 questions in a topic, and suddenly thought that it would be very handy to have a option for RSS / Email notification if a new message is send in a topic you are following??
maybe i'm asking something imposable but i think this can come out handy.
you should get email notifications for any topic that you are subscribed to, unless there is a problem with the mail server.
You can get rss feeds as well. Just google: smf rss
The forum software is called smf (simple machines forum)
