Default setting for forum email frequency
It would be useful to have a global setting for the default forum email frequency -- immediate or weekly. If this is not feasible I think that the default should be weekly. Many members object to
receiving too-frequent emails.

For our purposes, we would like the admin to be able to set the default email frequency for each forum subscription.

I would like to see this per-forum, but I'd gladly take a global default setting.

I would prefer the option to set the default to whatever you want. Our club prefers immediate as a default so it would be great if the default could be customizable

Evgeny mentioned that this is "very easy to change" - so perhaps this item could be combined with one of the other forum-related changes that are farther along in the process - e.g.,
- Managing email subscriptions to forum updates (for which this issue is relevant because people will unsubscribe if the default frequency doesn't match the nature of the forum)

Agreed - the Admin should be able to set the default frequency for each forum.

This is a good and very easy to change - but we have a lot of things in our hands now so I cannot estimate when we can do this.

I'd like to see the default set per forum by the Administrator.
In our case, we have a News & events forum that should be set to immediate, and a bunch of Project forums that would best be set to weekly.
For both Administrator and Member, it would be good to have a "Select all" option and then allow individual deselections.

Good point. Do you see this as a global or per-forum setting?
