Eric, I'm delighted with the prospect of automatic digests. This will be a real help for the lists I run. I'm a bit concerned that the digest will sometimes turn out to be awkwardly large, even with daily digests. One of our lists sometimes has over a hundred messages per day. I'm afraid that the same people who have trouble coping with this number of messages will also have trouble coping with digests that are a couple thousand lines long. Would it be possible to have long digests broken into parts of no more than a thousand lines? I'm not sure this is important. We already offer a daily index service (thanks to Marty Hoag's efforts) for our subscribers with limited mail capacity. Peace, Dan << Daniel D.
