      In many forums I participate in, when I subscribe to a thread and I get a notification that a new message has been posted, the message is attached in the notification.

      That makes things a lot easier for me, because if the new message doesn't necessitate a reply or isn't relevant to the reason why I subscribed to the thread, I can just read it, and go on.

      The way it's now with the pfSense forums, I have to each time go to the forum just to read a message, which particularly when on a mobile device like e.g. iPhone is rather cumbersome compared to just reading an e-mail message.

        It's an option in SMF.

        Click on "Profile" then "Notifications and e-mail" and check "When sending notification of a reply to a topic, send the post in the email (but please don't reply to these emails.)"

        Mine is checked, so my e-mails have the post in them.
