Yes I agree -- I experience the same problem a couple years ago when I was subscribed to over 300 threads. The only way to unsubscribe was to do it one page at a time -- what a pain in the ass that was! I have since turned off subscribing to threads.

The email gives you the option to unsubscribe from'all threads'. So when does a new thread become an old thread and not be deleted ?

That link just brings you to the thread management page in your control panel. It doesn't solve the problem.
