Is there any way to forward postings to my e-mail address? 
Over at the Apple Discussion Board, this is easy, but how do I do it here? 
If it can't be done, would it be possible to add this feature?
In fact, let's do a poll on this.

No; it's still not the same if there is more than one reply in that thread. If you actually try both options (the Apple Discussion Forum one on top of each *posting*, and the MacNN Forum one on top of each *thread*), you'll see the difference.
The Apple one allows forwarding the full text, on a per-posting basis, inline in the e-mail message itself. The MacNN one only allows forwarding the URL of the thread if there is more than one reply posting in that thread (which could go off-line anytime because of a variety of reasons...)  .
Sometimes I may need to read the contents of a posting urgently while off-line. What I need is a feature to forward the full text of any specific posting automatically, not just the thread URL, even if there is more than one posting in that thread.
To my knowledge, this feature is not currently implemented at MacNN Forums, or is it?

For reference: You do need actually to be *logged on* to the Apple Discussion Forums Website in order to use their per-posting forwarding feature. If you just visit that site without logging on, you won't be able to use that feature.
