This is in my opinion a backstep in viewing the digest at least for use with MS Outlook: 1) With the overview index in the mail text it was possible to very quickly see posts of interest. 2) The numbered mail was not difficult to find since many mails where visible at one glance compared to the much fewer number now due to the longer message names (though it looks like there are now generally fewer posts in the digests - are they sent more frequently?). 3) With the new format it is not possible to quickly see through the list - no overview list in the mail, no thread grouping. 4) "Today's Topic" cannot be opened / shown directly in MS Outlook (2010). So it must be opened with double click, selection of a program to be loaded with, security questions. 5) "Today's Topic" lists all mails in order, no grouping by thread. 6) "Today's Topic" lists only short lines with line breaks for longer topics which makes it even more difficult to read. I was subscribed to the list in order to keep in touch with announcements and developments and to see what troubles and solutions are out there. But since the new formatting has been out I did no longer look through the digest, because it is too confusing and time consuming. Why was this change made? Am I the only one with that problem?
