I have a question.... Is there any way to change the daily mailing list
digests to be called something other than "digests" ???

I ask because there is a pigeon magazine called the "Pigeon Digest", and
it's editor mentioned that people are beginning to refer to the pigeon
email list as "the digest", when that is what the magazine was referred
to for many years.

I do not have a problem either way with this, and explained to the
editor the below explanation.  However I was wondering what you think of
this.

Thanks for your time,
Cliff Baynon

Gene,

You bring up an interesting topic that I never thought of.  The last
thing I  would want to do would be to infringe upon any name.  As far as
I know, a "digest" is the common term for any daily mailing list.  I did
not name this, and all current email lists are referred to as "digests"
on my university system.  I know of know way to alter this title.  The
only say in the name that I had was the "PIGEONS-LIST"; the university
and the unix email program does all the rest.

        Let me know if this is a big problem for you, because I really
do not
know how to go about altering that name.

Sincerely,

Cliff Baynon
