Hi

As of yet, Hostway doesn't appear to have a good solution to the problems 
with the "digest" version.

The feedback I have gotten is that the people who select "digest" version 
over "individual" messages do so because they find it disruptive to receive 
e-mails all day long at their regular e-mail address. My solution is to use 
"individual" e-mails but create your own digest version by setting up a 
separate e-mail address. 

Here is a "workaround" to solve the problem of html gruel in the digest 
version of NEohioPAL:

1. Set up a separate e-mail address for NEohioPAL. There are many free 
internet e-mail systems like Microsoft's Hotmail: <A HREF="www.hotmail.com">www.hotmail.com</A>. AOL 6.0 
allows for up to seven e-mail addresses.

2. Subscribe to NEohioPAL selecting "individual" message setting, not 
"digest."

3. The messages will accumulate in this dedicated e-mail address and you can 
check them as often or as little as you like. The inbox, effectively, will be 
your table of contents.

I will update you if Hostway solves the problem with the "digest" style...

Warm Regards,
Fred Sternfeld

PS -- NEohioPAL currently has 931 subscribers --  818 receiving "individual" 
messages and 113 receiving the "digest" style.
