Threading the digest is interesting alternative.  I wasn't expecting it to

thinking more like "send as threads" being every time it forwards a post,
attach all the preceeding posts of the thread to the new post (at top or
bottom, as configured).  Or collect posts, per-thread for some relatively
short period of time to reduce the number of mailings (maybe an hour??).

You could be getting rather a lot of duplicate mail, if this persists
for much longer:-)


 ... and I wonder whether they break threads when
someone replies from a thread and remembers to set the subject properly.

Not sure  --  I do do that on some lists, but since digests inherently
don't thread, I can't tell.

Is gmame a suitable alternative?

What's "gmame"?

gmane

I've never used it, but I gather one _could_ read this list there.
