I agree. I have used the digest on other high vlolume lists and it
is indeed a time saver. And it does as you suggest combine subject titles
(for example the recent fire over BGH would have been confined to one or
two lines in the digest header as long as the replies used the same
titles). One problem with digests however is that I have yet to find an
easy way to extract messaes that I want to save or reply to. If the
digest option is available, it would be to everyone's benefit to either
have its specific instructions explained, or to make available the
address where one can find a complete set of instructions for the
listserver. I have found these for other lists using gopher/veronica but
have not found anythng that specifically addresses digest.
