Subject: Re: [Flexradio] TOO DAMNED MUCH
Well I must have something set wrong on Thunderbird. I keep up with
several ham radio list as well as model train list and if I don't use
digest mode I'm greeted with anywhere from 300 to 500 emails when I get
home from work everyday.
Only way I ever found to manage it was digest mode.

Actually, I lay the bulk of this problem at the feet of the "digest"
option. It means that, you get many messages as a single email
message and
when you press the reply button, you get many messages included in your
reply. Given that every current mail user application (MUA) "threads"
messages (combines all the message on a single topic together in a
"thread"), there really is no need for the digest mode. So, at the
rist of
being annoying to the users of the digest mode, I would suggest that
they
are their own worst enemy by continuing with the digest. Switching
back to
the standard of individual messages and then letting their MUA deal
properly with messages on a common topic would go a long way toward
eliminating their problem.
I know that when I see a message come with a subject of "Flex Radio
Digest"
I know that it is going to contain about 1% useful information and
99% of
messages that were included that have nothing to do with the topic.
(Not to
mention that the subject field no longer contains useful information
that
would allow me to know what the topic of the message is.)
Tim: consider this my request that you discontinue support for "digest"
messages.
