[Harp-L] Re: harp-l "forum" in future?

[patpowers <patpowers@xxxxxxx>]

I just use the "Digest" method. When I first signed on I was getting a bunch of individual posts in my inbox every day, but the digest method combines about 8 to 12 posts (depending n the size) into each email. Now I have much less email in my inbox and I can read through the digests at my leisure.  The only drawback I can think of to using this method is you don't get the posts "real time", but I don't think there's anything on here that warrants that level of urgency.

Just be careful when replying to not included the entire digest.  ..LOL  ..been there, done that!


Keep Harpin'!
