DIGest/NODIGest
Causes the subscriber to receive one posting per digest cycle (typically daily)
rather than individual messages as they are processed by LISTSERV. The
MAIL/NOMAIL option controls whether messages should be delivered, and the
DIGEST/INDEX/NODIGEST/NOINDEX option controls the format in which messages
should be delivered. Thus, switching to NOMAIL and back to MAIL does not destroy
the digest/index/normal delivery setting; it simply determines whether or not
LISTSERV should send any list mail to you. To provide as much compatibility with
older syntax as possible, the four options operate as follows:
DIGest: enable digest delivery mode (which negates
INDEX), enable mail delivery.
INDEX: enable index delivery mode (which negates
DIGEST), enable mail delivery
NOMAIL: disable mail delivery.
Mail: restore mail delivery, without altering the
digest/index/normal delivery setting
Please note that in extreme cases, subscribers using the DIGEST option may
receive more than one digest per cycle if the digest limit is reached before the
end of the cycle.
INDex/NOINDex
Causes the you to receive one posting per digest cycle containing only an index
of subject topics for all messages during that cycle. Instructions on how to
retrieve the individual postings are included with the index. See the section on
DIGEST (above) for further information.
Note that non-mainframe LISTSERV servers prior to version 1.8c do not support
the INDEX option. To find out which version of LISTSERV a specific list is
running on, send the command
