The digest concept still makes sense for people who want to see messages 
but no more than one per interval.  But if they were invented today 
they'd be a message containing a group of attached messages and your 
mailer would know how to open them and reply individually.

But the thing I'd like mailers to do is to call attention to messages 
that belong to a thread where I've replied earlier.  Is there a way to 
get thunderbird to do that?
