Yes, Jim, there is a Digest option -- as there is with most mailing lists.
However, that option does have a serious drawback. One of the big advantages of participation in email lists is the way in which the contributions of different people on the same subject are threaded in a conversation, thus making it easy to follow the discussion and understand the successive contributions and how they relate to each other. This threading relies on each email being sent as a reply to an earlier email in the same conversation. The threading uses the headers of the emails to recognise that they are in the same conversation. It is not possible for the reader of a digest email to reply to one of the topics included in the digest email and for that reply to be included in the conversation on that specific subject. It is not enough to simply use the same subject heading because, as mentioned above, the system uses the headers of the emails rather than the subject or title. If I were the owner/moderator of an email list, I'd be very tempted to not make the digest option available at all. But that's a personal opinion, and you'll probably all be glad that my rant is now over <g>. Lindsay Graham Canberra, Australia On 3/7/23 21:58, James McKane via CoTyroneList wrote:
Just to be sure everyone is aware of the "Digest" option. With the Digest option, instead of receiving one email for every posting, you would only receive ONE email per day which would include all postings for that 24 hour period. If you wish the Digest option, please drop me a note! Thanks for your support Jim Jim McKane Kitchener, Ontario
