Digest Readers and the TML (was: Mail traffic)

By J.R.Suckling ·

TML message #1744From bundle 144

There should be a way to make it easier for you to skip what you do not
want to read.  If you do not like to wade through stuff in a digest,
read on. This is for you.

If you do not like some of the articles you should take advantage of the
new format of this mailing list.  I asked our Administrator

	[ [email removed] (James Perkins)]

to change the format of the digest so that people could skip (or in my
case save) special articles.  The new format separates every article
with a line starting with `--'.  Any lines in articles that are
submitted with '--' starting lines have been changed to '- -' to
ensure that mail bursters can separate them properly.

With this change you will be able burst your digest into separate
articles.  Many mail readers know about this sort of thing. My mail
reader "msg", a part of MMDF, has a command '@' that bursts.  "MH"
(Mail Handler) also has a burst program.  You could even write a
program to burst a digest and mail the articles to your self, if
nothing else would work.

Good luck!	  And let the special interest groups keep
			their share of the TML.
