Dave's comments and request are on target. I 
switched from digest to regular email for that 
reason. With email I built a filter so all these 
posts go into an "Elecraft" folder vs. my Inbox -- 
and now am pleased I switched from digest.

In contrast, on the Yahoo reflectors the default 
seems to be to not quote the message replied to. 
When that happens I'm often puzzled since there is 
*no* context. So a good balance is a good thing.

Just IMHO :-)
