Thanks once again Mark. I have those Digest settings in place for
manual sending now.

Ugh. Dream Host does not give me cron job / command line access.
I'll try begging them to do this, but more likely I'll have to
manually release the Digest each week.
It is unlikely they will let you do this as it would affect all lists
on the server, not just yours.
A manual process is not too bad. Set the list's digest_size_threshhold
to zero so no digests are sent on size and set digest_send_periodic to
No so none are sent by cron. Then when you want to send a digest, set
_send_digest_now to Yes on the Digest options page and save changes.
This will send the digest immediately if it has any messages.
Or... Look into setting up my own Mailman service on my own virtual
server... I am running a Mastodon instance, so I might be up for the
challenge. Maybe.
If you're considering this, I would recommend Mailman 3. See
https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/install.html
Mailman 2.1 is past end of life and will only become more difficult to
support as time goes on. In particular, it requires Python 2 which is
also end of life and is being dropped from many distros.
