Laurel,  digest is not intended for active contributors,  but only for 
those who whnt to follow th discussion without interveening.  As such,  it 
does not have an easy way to interact with it.  If you really want to 
reply to a digest,  copy/past the relevant portion of the digest in a new 
note and copy/paste the relevant subject line in the subject of the new 
note.  Good luck!

Subject
[bksvol-discuss] responding to specific posts when in digest mode






I receive the bksvol-discuss posts in digest form so I do not get 
individual e-mails for each posting. Using digest, how could I respond to 
a 
specific posting when all the messages are in one e-mail? (These are the 
postings that show up with "Re:" in the subject line followed by the 
original subject.) Could I highlight the posting I want to respond to and 
then send a reply e-mail posting to bksvol-discuss or would this send 
*all* 
the postings from my digest list? Should I strip out all the postings I do 

not want and then send a reply e-mail with only the posting I want left 
from the original digest e-mail? Is this even possible or do I need to 
send 
a new message each time I want to post to bksvol-discuss?

I hope this posting is not too confusing...

Laurel
