Which modules to use for comment notification etc.?

Which modules do you use for:
1.) Letting an admin know that a comment has been posted so that he doesn't have to keep logging into the site
2.) For a blog site to capture a commenter's email when they are posting anonymously
3.) For a comment poster to know that someone has responded to his comment

I could be wrong but I think you might want to check out the notifications module :) If not that then the Actions module should work just fine.
Let me know how you make out.
A quick search of modules
A quick search of modules with "comment" as a keyword (either by typing "type:project_project comment" into the search box above, or from the advanced search page yields:
http://drupal.org/project/commentmail
This is built-in: the setting is at admin/content/comment/settings. If you want anonymous users to be able to have their contact info retained between site visits you can use http://drupal.org/project/comment_info
http://drupal.org/project/comment_notify

I notice that comment_notify
I notice that comment_notify requires a patch to the comment module in drupal core. I am not sure I want to meddle with the core. Making this point here as the author hasn't mentioned this important point on the project page.
