+1. For what it's worth, I have little enough time available for
mailing lists that I just delete digest replies without reading them
(I check the subject before deciding to read or delete a thread).

While you're at it, could you please consider not top-posting, only
quoting the relevant parts in your replies, and hitting "compose"
instead of "reply" when you're starting a new thread ? :)

[Tagging] Replying to raw digests considered harmful

[Paul Johnson]

Could you please consider either subscribing to the nondigested version of
the mailing list  or use
procmail to split each digest into it's constituent messages
?  Replying to the
emails containing the digested mbox breaks threading by not preserving the
In-Reply-To or Subject headers and makes everyone else's mailboxes harder
to manage (particularly for folks filtering by thread; most folks are
likely to filter anything with "digest" in the subject straight to trash or
mute it without reading).
