How do I set up emailing of discussion contributors?

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I would like contributors to discussion threads to be able to choose whether they want to be emailed when someone else adds something to the discussion - in just the same way as you can with this forum.

Is this possible? If so, how do I set it up? Using a space rule?

There is not an out-of-box way to do this, but we are looking to do the same type of thing for content. It would require a subscribe-type option on the discussion or the forum. I saw in the forge that Hans Verreydt has created a subscribe project. I haven't tried it yet so I don't know if it works with forums/disucssions.

Give this a look: http://forge.alfresco.com/projects/subscribe/
