Good to know. Thanks.

By the way, that Mangus name sounds so familiar. Did he also make the ram logo for GNU?

There is not.  We (actually, Magnus Hagander) wrote our own mailing list
manager and decided early on that digests were not on the list of
requirements.  Rather the opposite: replies coming from people that
consume the digest versions are typically horrible (because they tend to
quote the entire *digest* rather than just the entire *message* they
reply to), threading no longer works, etc.
