On [forums.ankiweb.net](http://forums.ankiweb.net) these is `Activity Summary` feature under Prefrences\>Emails.

The forum in general doesn’t send any emails, and I am unsure if it can due to how the backend works. I’ll see if I can configure discourse to use a custom email backend.

Email notifications, especially for replies, would be great. As long as your email server speaks SMTP, it should be trivial. Edit: and if it doesn’t, you can just spin up a simple Postfix instance for the forum. Multiple email servers for sending are quite easy to set up, but replying via email might be a bit more complicated, though.

the backend doesn’t do email at all, pretty much. Email is sent from a different server over a private http link
