I've checked the log, and there are no error indications with the word
'digest' in them ... I'll review it in more detail.

We're running 1.8d (I had that in an earlier post, but should have
mentioned that in this message too.)

We'd seen the 'removed message' possibility, but to our knowledge, no
messages have been removed from the archive.

Is there any way to even do that, without a manual edit of
'listname.0501h' (as an example)?

Upgrading is not an option right now, although we are looking into
obtaining the funds necessary to get up-to-date.

Thanks
