the annoyance was over copious inclusion of list footers... in the end, 
the footers (a dozen or so lines) were included in one message four or 
so times - in the digests, footers aren't seen much, but by failing to 
clip them when you quote another message, the people in digest mode 
will have the footers (mostly advertisements) copied over and over and 
over.... and they have to scroll through these in order to see the next 
message.
