There could always be unreliable mail delivery to some addresses.  
But check whether these subscribers have somehow unsubscribed to
particular threads.  Each forum and each message in the forum has
a 'list' file of subscribers and unsubscribers.

I trust you are not confusing subscribing with registering as a member.
The latter doesn't subscribe you to anything (unless you are using
'all-member' forums).  It's a frequent confusion.
