[webproducers] to catherine...

catherine,

why not just set up message rules, make a folder in your email application,
and use the rule to sort all the webproducers messages to that folder?

however, I agree that a daily digest version of the list might also be a
nice feature.

Perhaps respondents can send their replies to the list administrator who
will capture and post all replies in one email so that those who are
interested, including the person who asked the question, can open one email
and be done with it?
