Since Davud sent this message (about an 90 minutes ago), I've already
received 3 or 4 digest emails. Why so many? Because they're STILL full
of quoted text, and the system automatically sends out digests when the
size of new messages reaches a certain limit...

Does no-one listen or am I just being overly grumpy about scrolling
through PAGES of quoted text?

p.s. Actually some people did listen. But not everybody.
