A long time ago when the Internet was slow (can you spell UUCP?), there were mail programs that could 'undigestify' mail digests and it sort of made sense to have mail digests. Now days, every respectable email program can handle threading and filtering so there is no reason I can think of for digest modes. I forget when I signed up for the LUG, probably in the early 1990's. I do remember Ken Iisaka telling me about it when he was a student at Ottawa U and I was working at Bell-Northern Research. Thanks, Brian, for keeping the servers running. It can be such a pain when the stupid S/W misbehaves. Regards, Spencer
