HOWEVER once you switch to Digest mode, please PLEASE remember when you are
responding to a digest post,
1) edit the email subject to match the topic
2) trim out ALL the other topics in the digest to just the topic you're
responding to.
3) Further trim, if necessary to just the part of the topic that's relevant

Some email clients can automatically handle digest postings for you so you
don't have to remember the first two steps, but apparently they're few and
far between.

Personally I find it easiest to have my email service or my email client
put all GnuCash-User messages into a folder (or using a tag) instead of my
inbox, and then look at the GnuCash messages when I'm ready (rather than
having my inbox cluttered). Gmail calls this "filters" and is very
configurable. Gmail tries to guess for you, but I find it best to override
Gmail's guesses and use filters to send every email list message into its
own tag, bypassing the inbox, never sending to "spam."
