Yes, you can subscribe to the topic/forum/category/board ... You can enable this feature as admin only. Go to admin options. select Feature Configuration and locate Highest level of Subscription ... you can set this to various levels with subscribe to board being the highest level.
Once this feature has been enabled, all you and any member has to do in order to get email notification of when a post is made is 'subscribe' ... there will be an icon which will activate the subscription.
Hope this helps.

You have activated the subscription but you will still need to subscribe. It is what I have done on my forum and I get notification of all the posts now. Could you give me a link to your forum so that I can see what is going on?
