Well, Discourse primarily informs you in the "activity bar" (behind your
profile icon on the top right).
If you follow a topic/category/tag, then each new post will also appear
there in the overview.
What you can enable now is that these "push notifications" will be sent
to you directly via mail.
In fact, this is not much spammier than the default.

This would be something that would have to be passed on to the
appropriate places or you would just have to set up forwarding
rules..... I think that is already a special request.
