How to get Email Notice when thread replied?

I've gone through the Profile and can't find how to set this.

I really need get email notices when someone replies to a thread of mine. Would also like notices to others' threads I've replied to.

This goes for Classifieds too.

Thanks
Tom

Unfortunately, this free forum software does not have the Email notification unless I pay for premium.

Have you tried the "track topic" button at the bottom of the forum? I don't know how it works, I haven't tried it. Also, there is a link on the bottom of the main forum directory, below the shout-box, next to the "Top 10 poster's link", that says "Replies to my topics" that will show you all unread replies to your topics.

Don't need an email for replies to your thread.

When the site first comes up you will be on "portal"
top right, second box from right click on "your topics"

AND....
to check on other members posts that you have posted on...
on top left click on your name
then: on top left hover over "profile Options" and go
down one and click on "lists members posts"
then click on the month you want to check on

Yes, I'm doing the Member's Posts thing - that's the only way to keep track.

But I noticed something: when I did a PM to someone, there is a box to check "TRACK MESSAGE." And I think there is a similar box for EMAIL NOTIFICATION for a post or reply. Would it be possible to have that box defaulted to Checked in ZetaBoards?

I'm guessing most people want the email notification, but perhaps not - I don't know.

Not sure what the "Track Message" feature does, but there is no option to be e-mailed about a thread. I made the same suggestion shortly after I joined this forum. It was shot down almost instantly. :P

I find this feature very helpful on other forums that I hardly visit, but I found that I really don't need it on here, seeing how I'm on here all the time. Twice a day, I just browse the same forums and I never have a problem "misplacing" threads. I check the "replies to your threads" section every once in a while for good measure.

I just realized I had about 6 unanswered PM's that went back 5 weeks.

Argh... and I'm trying to run down some rare Turbo parts!

At the very top right of the "Active Topics" page it shows "Inbox" and indicates if you have any PMs in your inbox--check it each time you log on.................
