It won't.  You would have to edit the digest, which only a server admin can do,
as only they have direct access to the server to do so.  Editing a 'live' digest
is not for the faint of heart.

The only thing a List Owner can do is simply delete the digest, so nobody gets
it but then also nobody gets the worm either.  The way to delete the digest is
GET your list header.

If you have *Notebook= Yes,.... and a line that says

* Digest= Yes,Same,Daily

Or you do not have a Digest= line at all (in which case the default is as above)

Then change the line to

* Digest= No

and PUT the header.  You will get a message that the old digest has been
deleted.  Then GET your header and change the line back to whatever it was and
PUT the header again.

If you have Notebook= No but also have Digest= Yes,(dir_spec),... then you are
probably out of luck because only a server admin can change this for you.
