Re: Frustrated by amount of messages.

I, too, have thought of quitting the list, due to the number of
messages which are piling up in my inbox. But my thinking is usually
stimulated by reading these messages. So I keep hoping I'll have time to
read them.
One solution I've seen other listserves do is to have the server
produce a daily digest of all the messages posted. I have no idea how
involved (software-wise, server-wise) such a task is, but this could
provide another option for those of us who like to read and occasionally
contribute (asa-digest@calvin.edu?). Although this doesn't address the
volume of material, it would decrease the number of messages from 20/day to
1/day. And the regular asa@calvin.edu list would be available for those
who can't wait until the next day to respond :)
Other options? How difficult is this, Terry?
In Christ,
