Nabble forums also work as a mailing list server.
You can subscribe to a forum by clicking on "Options > Subscribe via email".



Here you can see the options when you click on that link:



(1) Individual emails - You receive one email for each new post under the forum. If you reply to such emails, your message will be archived as a new reply on the forum.

(2) Digest - You receive one email with a summary of all posts created in the last 24 hours. You can't reply to this type of email.

To manage your subscriptions, click on your profile (top right corner), then click on "Personal Settings > Email Subscriptions". From that screen you can change and remove subscriptions.

To know the email of a given forum, go to the forum and click on "Options > Post by email...". To prevent spam, forum addresses are unique for each user. So you can't get a forum address and send it to your friends.
