with a decent email client (I use Pegasus Mail) you can read the Elecraft 
Digest like individual mails. You can even sort it on time, sender, thread, 
subject...
I cannot imagine a better way to read a digest than in this way.
(mime digest)
The yahoo digest on the other hand needs to be digested by an external 
program (thanks to Stephen Knight for this) to be converted into a mime 
digest. 

ymmv, but with a decent mail client you will be set IMO.
