I  have a slightly odd way of reading GreenKeys, which Gil
suggested I mention  here as it might be of use to others who 
tend to prefer digests rather  than individual e-mails.

I don't actually read GreenKeys via e-mail at  all.  Instead,
I just keep a browser window open which is pointed to  the current
month of the list archive, in sort-by-date mode. To read  the
list, all I do is go to it and hit the "refresh" button.
This gives  me a current subject + poster listing of all of the posts,
with the most  recent at the bottom of the list.  Just click on a
post to read  it.  Here's a screengrab of what it looks like right  now:

The  downside, I suppose, is that you can't just click on a post
to reply to it  (but as a matter of standard operating practice,
I never do this anyway -  over the decades, I've seen way too many
instances of replies gone  astray).

The only other hitch is that often I forget the month has  ended
and I wonder why nobody's posting :-)  But a quick look at  the
calendar fixes that.

One advantage over digest mode is that you  can see everything
that has been posted - you don't have to wait for the  digest.

The URL for the archive index (from which you select the  month
and mode-of-viewing desired)  is:

http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/greenkeys/

Anyway, it's one  possible way to read the list if you don't like
an inbox full of individual  posts, but you don't want to be
moderated (as digest-mode is now).   Gil can set you up for no posts
in your inbox at all and no moderation for  your own posting.

David M.
