Hi Vi Unfortunately the problem you have is partly of your own making ;-) In the latest software we have for the lists there were some changes, admins used to be able to set the size of the digest before it was sent *or* periodically, we no longer have that periodic setting, so all that can be done is to set a size at which time the digest is triggered for sending, set it to small and you get one message per digest, set it to high and you may never get a digest for months on some lists The footer message in the new set up, due to data protection and legislation is larger than previously So when a digest user replies to the list its imperative that they delete all parts of the post that are not relevant to their post, *particularly* the footer message which is appended to *every* message automatically (so there is never a need to copy it back to the list) Your post was 28.8kb in size, largely due to your copying the whole digest and more back to the list, your post included the footer messages eight times (plus the automatic append equals nine) Personally I cannot understand why there is a digest option these days with the volume of posts and speed of most peoples internet But if digest users delete all the irrelevant parts from their replies they should at least get useful posts in a digest rather than repeats of repeats Changing the subject line to the post being replied to also helps to keep the thread together Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/08/2018 03:14, Vi wrote: > What has changed that we now get many digest emails per day?
