Forum: Instructions for Subscribing and Unsubscribing
Re: Question Automatically have Unsubscribe as default
Date: 1997, Feb 21
From: Daniel M LaLiberte <liberte>

The way you asked your question, I am unclear whether you are unsubscribing yourself or unsubscribing the authors of the messages. You should be able to unsubscribe yourself for the whole forum, even though you are the owner. If you write a message, you might be subscribed just for that message, unless you unsubscribe for that too.

You can configure the whole installation to automatically unsubscribe authors of responses. See $defaultNotification in your hnrc file.

Authors of messages can explicitly unsubscribe when they write their message, by unchecking the Notify Me checkbox. The default setting of this checkbox comes from $defaultNotification.

More options are possible, but they haven't been a priority.

For example, a default subscription setting for each person might be useful and do what you want.
