Re: The lists I monitor

Speaking of volume :-)
Any possibility of creating an XML-DEV List Digest format? e.g., like ACRA-L
provides as an alternative- a single daily updated digest, which is preferable
to receiving a large number of individual posts hammering at my inbox
throughout the day and night. For example, one day not so long ago that
amounted to about 75 posts in my inbox.  And that is just from XML-DEV list.
