Not at all, you just go to Amulation where every message is archived.  I 
receive the digest and I delete them all, I don't want to keep any of the 
messages.  It's much easier to delete one digest mail than X number of 
individual mails.

I agree with this too.  This irritates me more than the spam, though the 
spam is starting to grate.

This borders on insulting and is completely beside the point.  We digest 
subscribers do not choose digest because we don't understand how to filter 
or organise mail.
I *started out* subscribing to the individual mail list, I changed to and 
greatly *prefer* the digest because nothing is worth retaining over and 
above the archiving already present at Amulation, among other reasons.

Exactly!  Yay for spam!

Add me to the list of whingers.

Hear hear!  I totally agree.


And yes I am just adding to the noise.  Let's see how much more flogging the 
dead horse can withstand.

Are you ready for some Hotmail spam?  Prepare yourselves.
