Hmmm.. Ok, another idea...

Just send an auto-reply to the unsubbed OP when they post anything, with
a direct link to the Nabble thread, and inform the user that they will
need to get their answers from there - although they'd have to actually
visit the link to know if there were any more answers...

Anyway, it looks like I'm fighting a losing battle... and honestly, if
the moderators don't mind all of the work, who am I to complain? I can
easily just circular file the noise the situation generates...

I think the best way to resolve this completely would be a Forum-Mailist
gateway, where the unsubbed OP is automatically subscribed to the
companion forum thread and will receive email updates whenever someone
replies (via email or the forum)...
