There are three ways to do it:
!# __Monitor__ (=get by email) __all messages from the forum__ 
Like it usually works in email lists: copies are received from the initial messages (new topics) from all the new discussion threads, as well as from all their answers.
You need to click on the right icon when looking at the topics list from a forum. For instance:

{BOX()}{img src="http://precarios.org/show_image.php?id=678" }{BOX}

!# __Monitor only the initial message__ from all the new discussion threads from this forum.
You need to click in the eye icon on the left when looking at the topics list of a forum. For instance:  
{BOX()}{img src="http://precarios.org/show_image.php?id=679" }{BOX}
(= this way, you don't authomatically get by email the answers from the new discussion threads, if we don't subscribe to them; see next step)

!# __Monitor the answers__ to specific discussion threads.
You need to click on a specific discussion thread in a forum, and click on the eye icon on the right of the initial message from that discussion thread. For instance: 
{BOX()}{img src="http://precarios.org/show_image.php?id=680" }{BOX}

On [http://doc.tikiwiki.org/Tikiwiki+1.10], when you start a new thread you have the option to select monitoring that thread just at posting time (and selected by default):
^::{img src="http://doc.tikiwiki.org/img/wiki_up/110_forum_watch_replies_at_post_time_.png" }::^

Additionally, in Tiki 2.0 you can ((doc:watch)) a categorized forum through watching the category that it belongs to.
