    3. I have the same problem. Some digests come to me in one long string as if there are no line breaks. Other digests look normal. Had this problem before the new Mailman, so I don't know if it's necessarily related to the new software.

    3. Thanks, Paul, but my digest mode is already plain text. Regardless, sometimes my digests have no line breaks. Other times they do.

    3. Thanks Paul. I checked (she's in Australia so we have some time delay) and she is already subscribed in plain text digest, so it's not that.
