[mono-android] [MonoTouch] Introducing the Xamarin Forums

[Karl Heinz Brehme Arredondo]

And Mail.app...
And also would be good to identify in subject if it's MonoTouch, Mono Android or other thing, so: "[xamarin] [MonoTouch] Y"

Thanks,

Karl

Do this like linkedin does where I get emails about what is happening with a lot of content.  Technically, linkedin doesn't give me enough content, but it gives me more than what I read below.  I like noisy forums!

You can then enable Email notifications for ALL threads and posts (including all replies!) in the Category Notifications section:

It's still useful, and it's still spamming my inbox, so I'm "happy" (I'd be happier with actual message content...). Plus, it makes the forums actually USEFUL to me, as I don't need to "poll" to see if threads I've replied to have gotten further responses.
