Hi all!
 
I'm trying to write up a "Cheat Sheet" for my subscribers.
 
My question is:
When someone changes from Digest to individual messages, what do
they use? Set listname NoDigest? Set listname Mail? If their mail
gets set to NoDigest, will they receive individual messages - i.e.;
mail?  (We're using Listserv v1.8b at TAMU.edu)
 
The (FANTASTIC!!!!) "List Owner's Manual for Listserv version 1.8b"
from Nathan, says (5.3.2. DIGest/NODIGest) stuff about what a
digest is, but doesn't cover what you get with the (New!) NoDigest
or NoIndex options...  HELP!!
 
I've got the following (A HUGE thank you to Chris Barnes for coming
up with the format/info and typing it up! All I have to do is copy
and send to my list! :-) ):
