Well, no, actually, but thanks for trying to read my mind all the same.
When I described how Apple Mail handles messages, I wasn't trying to
brag about how great Apple Mail is compared to everything else. In
fact, I had assumed that there would be several PC mail apps that
handled new mail notification in a similar manner, since this seems
like a reasonably useful way of doing things.
Not everyone reads email or uses there computers the same way you do.
For those people who do things differently, there may be benefits to
the Digest that you would not find helpful to you personally.
Yes, and I was asking what those benefits might be, since it was (and
is) not at all apparent to me how the benefits of subscribing to the
list via the digest outweigh the numerous severe drawbacks.
I never expected that this would draw me a tongue-lashing from
someone who does not even subscribe to the digest himself. But since
this seems to have become a bit of a sore point with you for some
reason, I'm more than happy to let the matter drop.
