I completly agree with what you say, unfortunately I don't get digests every
three days....whats happening is the  occaisional post gets through....maybe two
a week.....then every three or four weeks I'll get a huge backlog of up to
100-120 mails......I've no idea why this is happening.  I've checked my server
and my computer......and no-one has any answers.  Love-hounds is the only list
to have this problem.  Having to wait three/four weeks excludes me from many
conversations, cos by the time I get the mails, the thread is dead.

Sigh!
