Hi:

Neither digesting nor archiving are set up for the list, although I can 
set them up easily. I figured that since there was an active archive at 
plasma-gate, which included all of the previous mails, there is no need 
for another one.

I'm not convinced digesting will solve the problem - as what the digest 
means, basically, is that majordomo collects several mails to the list 
and mails them out together to those who request only a disgest. So they 
get all of the mails to the list, only they don't get them as x seperate 
mails but as one mail a week containing everything.

If we agree on the meeting (or on the list) that we want a digest, I'll 
set that up.

Regards,
Ariel
