Sorry for the delay - it's been a busy week... I'll accept that it's down to cPanel - but I won't push my provider, for reasons I need not go into here. I got my Topics issue sorted a while back, thanks to another member (whose name escapes me). What I did at that time was to edit the HTML page for user options to remove the disable delivery option, so that everybody either *has* to get mail that matches the topic, or sees it in the digest. I think in future I'll go with the Urgent: header though as it does avoid being bombarded with loads of emails asking "why am I getting this?"
