Hi, I am looking to see if there is a way I can email all registered users when a new question is posted in a forum. Say I have forum PC Help and user123 posts a question about his hard drive, I was wondering if all 50 registered eblah users on my forum could see that there is a new question in the PC Help forum. I have the other email functions working ok, when I reply to a post the user who created the thread gets the email notification. Thank you for any time you spend thinking about my question and I love this software!

That would cause a lot of spam! A end user can always "Watch" a thread once they have an interest.

I hear you there Nat, its spam I want though. I want a users to get notified when a new question is asked. I'm looking to replace an email distribution list currently. So after the first email saying hey I need some help the user who asked the question will get updates that it was responded to.

Sounds more like a Yahoo Answers or Experts Exchange kinda system you're after... You'd have to modify the core files of E-Blah quite heavily to do what you're after...
Consider "Yahoo answers clone"... Google it, it costs money, but it's quite elaborate and accurate.
