Can one bookmark a thread without actually making a post to it?

Yes, just scroll to the bottom of any thread until you see "bookmark this thread" just below the "add posting " tab

It only works for me if I post a message to the thread.

That's why I asked.

OK, I see the problem now.

There are duplicate selections.

the first is a little check-box which says

" Send me email notifications when someone replies to this thread (This will add the thread to your Bookmarks list) " (this is the - original - one that I've traditionally used for years).

The second is a clickable link at the bottom which says "Bookmark this thread". I never noticed this before: don't know when it got added.

You can also save pages like any other web address if you just want it for reference (Ctrl+d for most browsers). Make a folder in your saved web sites just for these forum pages if you want to save a number of them and keep them together.
