That option will only show up for forums that have the email integration activated. Other forums will show just the usual forum subscription selections.
Okay, thanks for this explanation.

I'd like to make a feature request, at least with the "greenest" of users in mind... you know, the ones who have never used forum software, let alone vBulletin with all of it's options. The ones who are intimidated by the switchover and want it to just work via email "the way it used to with Yahoo." I know it sounds silly, but walking them through going into each forum, one by one, and subscribing in this way, is a bit counterintuitive.

Would it be possible for there to be an option in the UserCP instead, for users to be able to activate "email integration" for each available forum? Ideally the admins themselves could turn this on as a default, or turn it on for users who don't know how. Right now, there's no way to set a default and no way for admins to do it for users, without logging in as that user and doing it manually per each forum.

I'd love an easier way for this to be used on a forum of complete forum n00bs, is all.

Thanks for your great work on this, Cyricx.
