From 3a258ad5cdd98c5705af6c02ba91993b3d382adc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Barry Warsaw Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2007 17:23:41 -0500 Subject: Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository. --- doc/mailman-member/node27.html | 144 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 144 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/mailman-member/node27.html (limited to 'doc/mailman-member/node27.html') diff --git a/doc/mailman-member/node27.html b/doc/mailman-member/node27.html new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6abb8708 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/mailman-member/node27.html @@ -0,0 +1,144 @@ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +8.1 How can I start or stop getting the list posts grouped into one big email?

+8.1 How can I start or stop getting the list posts grouped into one +big email? (digest option) +

+ +

+Groups of posts are called "digests" in Mailman. Rather than get messages +one at a time, you can get messages grouped together. On a moderately busy +list, this typically means you get one email per day, although it may be +more or less frequent depending upon the list. + +

+You may also want to look at Section 8.2 which discusses MIME +and plain text digests. + +

+To turn digest mode on or off using the web interface, + +

    +
  1. Log in to your member options page. (See Section 3.1 + for more details on how to do this.) +
  2. +
  3. Look for the section marked "Set Digest Mode." + +

    +Set it to "On" to + receive messages bundled together in digests. Set it to "Off" to + receive posts separately. +

  4. +
+ +

+To turn digest mode on or off using the email interface, + +

    +
  1. Send a mail to with the command + set digest plain or set digest mime or set digest off. + +

    +Commands can appear + in either the body or the subject of the message. (See + Section 3.2 for more information about sending mail + commands.) +

  2. +
  3. Set it to "off" if you wish to receive individual posts separately, + and to "plain" or "mime" to receive posts grouped into one large mail. + See Section 8.2 for more information on plain versus MIME + digests. +
