Yeah, if you have attachments to the list you probably
don't want digest mode. With discipline it works
out pretty good for a list like this. But it's incredibly
aggravating to digest people when a digest person
replies to the whole stack without trimming.
My old e-mail address had digest mode set.

I recently changed my e-mail and I want this list to

everything else I can think of, but couldn't get it done
on my own.
Can the list admin change mflan@xxxxxxxxx to digest mode,
assuming mflan@xxxxxxxxx is the e-mail I used to sign up
to this list.
Does anybody know how to change to digest mode?
No, and I don't know if the list supports it. However I would urge you
to reconsider. Digest mode is an obsolete workaround that dates from
when most people got their mail by modem using UUCP. It has no
advantage these days, and indeed often causes problems when someone
replies to a digest instead of replying to one of its component
messages, or thinking that they can do this just by editing the subject
line (which breaks threading). I'm a moderator on the Evolution list so
have direct experience of dealing with this. We turned off digests on
that list a while ago and have had no complaints.
A modern email client using filtering and folders is by far the best
way of dealing with heavy list traffic.
