my advice move to the digest as I have done at least you only get one 
mail in the mail box and its easier to parse out the noise. I agree
its irritating, but that's community life.

BTW something is posting in an unknown 8-bit character set: 

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=unknown-8bit
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
X-MIME-Autoconverted: from 8bit to quoted-printable by
soda.csua.Berkeley.edu id XAA25417

which throws the whole digest out and fills it with nasty contol
characters
such as =20 for CR LF which make scanning the text a real pain.

my mail client states:
'
This message uses a character set that is not supported by the Internet 
Service. To view the original message content,	open the attached
message. 
If the text doesn't display correctly, save the attachment to disk, and 
then open it using a viewer that can display the original character set.

'

If anyone has the individual mails they may be able to spot what it
is as the digest encodes all the text using this scheme during 
auto-convertion.

you may want to check out the computer topics mailing list - the
details are on the computer core site which can be accessed from
