I posted about this while you were away from the list so maybe you
didn't see it. It's possible to change your subscription options to
'mime digest' which means that each message in the digest is stored as a
sub-message that you can reply to separately. At least in Mutt, it's
very easy to handle it this way. Mail still comes as a digest, but you
can also read and reply to individual messages individually.

Hopefully this will also stop the problem where people quote the entire
digest in their replies to the list, which is very annoying for people
using text based mailers (thankfully you are not guilty of that).

Best,

Chris.
