Are the digests always cut off at the same number of lines or bytes?  That
would indicate that a mail gateway somewhere still has a size limit (those
things *usually* were 100K, but there may be one misconfigured somewhere to
a smaller size) and finding it probably will require tracerouting from the
user's end to whichever LISTSERV is actually distributing the digest to
TAMU (my memory suggests that TAMU has a backbone LISTSERV).
 
Is the user using mail software that "leaves long messages on the server"
and only downloads a fixed (less than whatever is defined internally as
"long"--Eudora for example has that as an optional setting)?
