i'm not so much interested in being notified of *any* new content/comments (which, besides, could quite spam my inbox) but in replies to my *own* content/comments. as i can see, this shouldnt be hard to be implemented.

another nice feature would be a notification-subscription to a certain thread a la ubb ("Receive updates to this thread").

Imlementing a subscription feature shouldn't be too hard a task, neither is having comments sent to nodes you submit. Having replies to your comments is not as easy though as it would involve a lot of parent checking on comments to find out who they belong too. If you have ideas on how to implement notifications on replies to your comments let me know.

Comment: Scriptygoddess came up with a nice script that allows users to href="http://www.scriptygoddess.com/archives/000982.php">get notified when a
thread is updated with new comments. This feature is included in most
bulletin board apps, e.g. Ultimate BB, Phorum, PHPBB. This would be nice for
drupal sites, esp. those running forum.module. I can see it being useful on
active blogs as well.

Title: [feature] Notification on a per node basis
Status: Active
Comment: ACTIVE again. This case asks for 'per node' notification which is not
provided by notify.module. Notify only lets you subscribe to all nodes or all
comments (unless I'm missing something).

from the looks, this is exactly what subscriptions.module does. from the README:

The subscriptions module allows users to subscribe to nodes or taxonomies.  A
subscribed user will be emailed whenever a comment is updated or added to a
node.  When this module is enabled, all nodes will display a new link,
"subscriptions", which takes users to a page that will allow them to subscribe
or unsubscribe to the node in question.  This page also allows the user to
view all current subscriptions.

haven't tested it yet, but marking this FIXED.
