Default How do we "watch" a topic ?

....like on the old (dearly missed) board? I liked it when I started a new thread and I would be notified by email that there had been a new reply. Can we set that up somehow?

Also, has anyone else been told they can't receive pms because of a full mailbox?

When you are in that topic look just above the orginal message , you will see a item that says "thread tools" a drop down menu will appear ... at the bottom it will have a item to click to subscribe to that topic. It gives you several ways to be notifed when new posts appear. You wil need to select one that suits you. I selected once a day , thats more than suficent , as it helps to keep my inbasket clear of too much updateing!
Yes , Do check your PM's and clear out the old stuff , you can only have 500 total combined in and out. If you have more than 500 , the sender gets a Mailbox full notification and you get a Can't recieve notification .

I was wondering about this as well---perhaps there is something in the settings?
