for news-by-mail for a particular thread?

Sure. Sign up to get a newsgroup by mail, and then use your e-mail program's
filtering mechanism to zap everything but the threads you want.

Yahoo isn't that smart, it's only got 3megs of space and setting up
individual filters for each thread is much harder than clicking a "subscribe to
thread" button on the web-interface. But yeah - I could do that if I wasn't so
lazy :)
