For many people, the only way this would be sustainable would be to offer digests. Being emailed "everytime [sic] someone responds to a thread I am a part of, or a post I made" would be a complete nightmare.

Thanks - I added that as an option. And I believe, this should be configurable, so people who choose one way (digest/email) or no way, should be able to set it.

Alternatively, you could use BackType Subscriptions to do this, as well as follow threads you're not participating in:

We have a bookmarklet too -- so adding subscriptions can be less painful.
