In addition, if you respond to a digest subjected email, please change
the subject back to the original, like Svante just did. If that's too
much trouble, just don't reply. My opinion: if somebody isn't willing to
take the time to MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE he has the right subject, he
doesn't deserve a reply.

I think the "convenience" of getting email via digest implies the
*responsibility* of the extra work in fixing the subject and deleting
all extraneous body. That's why I never use a digest: by the time you
do what's right, it's not convenient anymore.
