I believe it's  easeier to read individual messages as opposed to the
digest setting.
It takes too long to go through a number of messsages.
You cna turn off digest mode by going to your subscription settings for
this list.

Hi Ben, and all,

Personally, yes, I find it quicker and simpler to have 
messages come through on most lists, individually.  I 
get a hundred and more messages each day these days, 
but still, it's quicker for me to choose to delete and 
move on, or choose to read, going by each individual 
subject line.  My delete key is one of the most used 
keys on the keyboard, of course.  But for me it's 
easier than arrowing down through digests and then 
finding the messages I want to read through for at 
least the first few sentences to see the current 
discussion, etc.


Hope That Helps,
Everett
