There's also a lovely little reminder about subscribing to a list digest 
in the footer of each message.

To receive messages only once a day, send the following message to

Personally, I use JD's method - separate email addresses for mail 
lists.  Keeps volume down and, I use Gmail, which lets me view postings 
in a conversation thread, which is very useful for an active list with 
many discussions.

So that I don't have to unsubscribe,  I'd helpfully suggest you limit your e-mailings to one every two or three days, at most -- perhaps through consolidation or more selectivity.
