Please don't reply to digests. Each message has a Message-ID, and
replies have an IN-REPLY-TO field that references the ID of the
previous message in the thread. By replying to the digest your message
has no meaningful Subject, and even if you change the Subject field,
it still won't be threaded properly. See for yourself:

So is Reply to All the way to go? For some odd reason Gmail won't
always Reply to All. I'll have to figure out why.
If you look at your subscription options:

you have an option to receive a digest containing many posts in a single email, or to receive
individual emails. If you are going to reply to messages, please pick individual emails. Then when
you wish to respond to one email, you hit "Reply To List" (if your email program has that
option) or "Reply All" (if it doesn't), edit your reply, and send.
If you are planning to be busy or away, and still wish to receive the emails,
but not reply to them, some people like to go onto digest mode. I've tried
that, and would not bother.
