The quality of the finished part is what counts.

The good news on that front is that there are list archives at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=emc-users The bad news is that sourceforge service seems to be steadily declining. The most recent messages in the archives are from February 23rd, even though we're at the Ides of March. The more recent messages will almost certainly wind up in the archives eventually, but its anybody's guess as to when. Fortunately the actual mailing is more timely. When I send a message to the list, I usually get my copy back from the list in five minutes or less (although there have been exceptions). I don't use digest mode because of the significant delay that it introduces. (I think there is only one digest per day, unless traffic is high.)
