Once again, the digest does not let you delete individual messages. All you
can do is scroll through once you see there is a message you don't want to
read. You may think this is trivial, but scrolling through 5 pages of
playlists a day is rather annoying. Especially since the digest message
seperator:
--------------------
Is used (to a degree) in many posts. The digest is a horrible mess to look
at, but it is still a more desirable option than getting each post as an
individual message. Nobody has really addressed the problem with posting a
link to a webpage which contains for sale and playlist stuff. They've merely
said "delete the extra posts you whiner". Well deleting the extra posts
doesn't work well for digest members, which this guy clearly states he is. I
understand the want to post playlists and for sale lists to the idm mailing
list, it's causing a non-trivial inconvenience for many digest members.
