For yourself and a guinea-pig subscriber:

SET listname DIGEST
SET listname MAIL
SET listname DIGEST

Did you and they get the DIGEST?

If you both got it, then I would try to figure out (with the help of your listserv-admin) if there is a "problem" with the LISTSERV distribute backbone.  Access to LISTSERV and SMTP logs would no doubt be of problem-source identification value.
