Subject:Digest information

Do you read the Vanagon list in digested form?  Do you want a better way to
view mail than in one huge block?

I just found out that Microsoft Outlook '98 handles MIME email digests
correctly.  This means that when you receive a digest, you can click on the
'attachment' icon and a pop-up list of all the letters in that digest will
appear.  When you select a message from the pop-up list, you can read (and
respond to) that message as though it were sent to you individually.

Microsoft Outlook '98 is currently available for 32-bit Windows platforms
for free from http://www.microsoft.com/outlook/

For those who use other platforms or simply hate Microsoft (and justifiably
so!), Pegasus mail also supports MIME email digests:

     http://www.pegasus.usa.com/

Lastly, if you wish to receive MIME digests, you must turn on MIME in your
settings by sending the following letter to 'listserv@vanagon.com':

     set vanagon digest
     set vanagon mime
