I won't retract it.  I asked Ron & David to keep this feature and a lot of
others liked it too.  Numerous people responded that "all"/ "almost all"/ "all
major" email systems allow convenient email filtering capabilities.  I think
this just isn't so.  I don't see how to do this with AOL.  Not that I'd
recommend AOL, but it's what I got, and it is certainly "major" (#1 perhaps?).
Also the email system at my office doesn't allow this filtering either.

I think we should get rid of digest mode!  I'm tired of seeing message
subjects like:
"Re: vanagon Digest - 13 Dec 1998 to 28 Dec 1998"
What the heck good is a subject like that?  There were 1,000 messages in that
time period!  Is the message behind the subject worth reading?  Should I
delete it w/o opening it?  It's a big guessing game!

O.K. My flame suit is on.  Go ahead!
