I agree Laureen. I don't do digest mode, but it becomes a lot to read the
same thing over and over again when it has no relevance to the reply. There
are also the little gems which accumulate at the bottom like signatures and
these "To unsubscribe from this list..." thingees. All you have to do is
highlight unnecessary text and then hit backspace. Keeping only the
relevent-to-your-reply text will not only help digest readers, but also
those on dial-up.
