This one can. From forums.xamarin.com, click the small "world" icon to the 
right of your login name ("Notifications" is the hover-text), then click 
Notification Preferences. You can then enable Email notifications for ALL 
threads and posts (including all replies!) in the Category Notifications 
section:

If you don't see a Category Notifications section, yell profusely at nat. ;-)

The one downside is that, while you'll get an email whenever something 
"interesting" happens, the email isn't particularly useful, e.g.:

So there's a notification + a URL + some information about what the message is 
in reply to, but there's no "content". It's still useful, and it's still 
spamming my inbox, so I'm "happy" (I'd be happier with actual message 
content...). Plus, it makes the forums actually USEFUL to me, as I don't need 
to "poll" to see if threads I've replied to have gotten further responses.
