It's like the current setup. When you sub*scribe to a group you have the
choice of individual emails, or digest mode. You can also pick web access
only as a third choice.
The thing I don't like about egroups is the spam included with every
message... If someone wants to pay them, they'll be glad to turn it off.
:-(
My vote is leave the list alone. It was working fine a week ago and
still is IMHO. Damn, hard to believe how much effect one or two posts
can have...
