Hi all,
Despite being signed up on this list for less than a year and "reading"
most of the emails, I still have over 200 unread emails tagged "EMM List"
in my inbox. I asked RobLa about switching to a daily digest and he sent me
the following:
Hi Sass,
I looked into your subscription, and it would appear you are already
flagged for receiving the list in the digest form.
One global change that I just made was changing the digest threshold from
30k to 300k. It could be that digest members (like yourself) were
receiving messages much more frequently than daily because of the low
digest threshold.
Documentation for the digest settings can be found here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-admin/node19.html
I'd be willing to make more changes to the global digest settings if you
find an obvious win or two in the list of options. Feel free to send an
email to election-methods asking about changes you would hope that I make
to the list settings. It may be that other digest users are silently
suffering rather than speaking up.
Rob
I think a simple increase of the threshold is probably sufficient, but the
link RobLa provided shows other options for the way digests would work. I
think it's worth it for y'all to review and discuss the options in case EMM
List members want something else.
Sincerely,
Sass
