I just don't understand this argument.  The "interface" of a digest is
roughly the same as using "less $MAIL" to read the list.  I don't see
how "read every single new message, in an order not of my choosing" is
a slow operation in any mail reader.  Moreover, it seems like if
there's too much traffic for you to keep up with, you could achieve
big gains by NOT reading every single message... skip over the threads
or authors you're not interested in, which is a heck of a lot easier
with individual messages than a digest, especially if you employ
filters.
