Just to clarify... did it work?
I mean, were you able to run snapshot DLL?
Was your issue resolved by it?

When you receive list as digest, there's easier trick to keep your messages
closer to the thread.
Just reply to your own sent messages! ;)

Probably. I'm not familiar with digest mode.
Frankly, despite marked as "high volume", the list only see about 10-15
messages a day on average.

Now, don't be so hard on yourself.
We only request what we see as good for many.
Threading is really important, when you search the list archives. Detached
replies make it hard enough to follow live discussion, and nearly impossible
to find heads of tails in the archive.
And upside-down quoting is... just... not natural.
