You can skip those threads which you do not care for with mail, this is analogous to: I go to many forums and much I see on the screen does not interest me but I still have to read all the topics to find the ones I like.

There should be a mail-tmo bridge IMHO, then only high S/N ratio from forum should be somehow handled.. anyways usenet did this all better, but what can you do, when many people think internet is web browser..
