I have never seen that HOLD invalidates DIGEST settings. I would say that
if LISTSERV tells them they are already set DIGEST they are. You are
doing a query on their subs before you do the manual? What does the job
ouput of your SET say?
How long was you list on HOLD? What are the NOTEBOOK/DIGEST settings?
Is it possible that your list was on HOLD for a long time and your
DIGEST subscribers are simply getting a lot of digests in quick
succession?
