I can imagine, if everyone used this, that stress on the server-load would
increase dramatically.  But, I was just wondering if there were any plans on

you mean not subscribe by mail to a newsgroup-by-mail (which you currently
can do), but only "subscribe" to specific threads?  Interesting idea, and I

can be replied to from a year ago, would you still want to get it by mail?
What about subthreads?
