+Description of problem:
+When replying to a forum post I expect to be automatically subscribed to that
+topic in order to get a topic reply notification by email.
+
+At present the forum appears to be set up to *not* send email notification
+unless the subscription link is clicked.
+
+What is very confusing is that the subscription link looks like a check box
+that is *already* checked to enable subscription to the topic.
+
+This bound to confuse users - it has me!
+
+Can we :-
+1. Change the default to always send topic reply notifications.
+2. Change the icon to not give the impression that notification is already
+subscribed.
+
+Without this the forum will be dead IMHO.
