Personally, I also don't like digests. However, it is possible to break
apart the digest into the individual messages. My mail program (MS
Entourage, only available on the Mac) has a useful mail list manager (allows
me to also have the mail automatically moved to another folder) that offers
the feature. I haven't seen it in any other mail program though. If you were
running any flavour of UNIX I'm sure you could have procmail (or similar) do
the same thing.
