Description

#### Current behavior in comments
- A user writes a comment and is held for moderation (when this option is on);
- The comment is approved and published;
- The user does not know if the comment was published because he did not receive notification, he needs to go to the site to check it out.

#### Solution I would like
I would like the user to be able to choose an option to allow receiving an email notification when the comment is approved.

#### Alternative that I considered
The Wpdiscuz plugin is an alternative that has the desired functionality.
