This is my reply:
Richard, both these suggestions are unfair. People have already apologised
for leaving a large amount of the original message at the base of their
reply. Let's leave it at that.
I personally think digest mode is not a particularly nice way to receive
Fluxlist posts, also it can't make sense of attachments etc. which I want to
see if they're sent. I'm not subscribed to digest mode. I also get a lot of
work e-mail each day so what I have done is set up my mailer(Outlook Express
but you can do this in others too) to check for [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the
To or CC fields of all incoming messages and then to move those to a
separate inbox. In other words I have an inbox just for Fluxlist which keep
all Fluxlist mail separate from my work mail, this way I can read the
Fluxlist stuff when I like and keep track of it easily in one large file for
future reference. Maybe doing something like this would help you and others
to solve your digest problems.
cheers,
