I have my LegacyUG mail directed to a sub folder in my inbox and I check it periodically. If there is a thread or topic of interest, then I read it, flagging topics/threads that are of interest to me for later reference. This works well, and the LUG mail doesn't get lost or bogged down in my inbox. I use this technique for other e-mail, but not all. I t seems that a digest delivery would not serve the group or readers well.
