to a couple of dozen lists and they all have digests, so I don't get

When I first got wired I subscribed to four lists.

Now this is the only one that suits my purposes.

When a message is not significant for me I have recourse to the delete
button.

When GB's comment first arrived I wondered who GB thought had done all the
work.His comment was analogous to the wonderment one feels when one
realises for the first time that in the real world somebody has to pay the
bills.

As mail messages often develop well beyond their subject is it not likely
that those having multiple subscriptions based upon a digest mode are
losing a pretty fair proportion of the worthwhile information anyway.
