  While I would not kill for such a feature (smile) it certainly would
come in handy.  Just this week I had a subscriber who posted a message
(more substantial than 'me too') with what he THOUGHT was quotes from
the two immediately preceding postings on that topic.  What he actually
quoted was an entire digest!  I don't even want to think about what
that day's digest looked like.
