[2.5] Can I get the list in digest form?

Yes. If the volume of messages gets overwhelming, you can instruct the listserv to send you each day's messages batched together in one. The message to send is:

    SET DIRECT-L DIGEST

and, one last time, the listserv address is:

    listserv@uafsysb.uark.edu
