Ah. I thought the thread digest was the essence of this approach. Of course, if it's not needed...

The thread digest is indeed the essence of this approach. But the digest has all the messages streamed inline as well as having the separate attached files, and it's much less cumbersome to read them inline.

But that's what I don't see: When I request a digest, all of the messages are, and are only, attachments. There are not inline messages. I wonder why we see something different?

Have you looked for them after the (huge) "Administrivia" section? That's where Thunderbird, and apparently many other mail clients, will put them. There may be an option needed for this, which would definitely complicate things.
