Thanks, Hans,

What I was trying to do was get the list in digest form, in plain text,
not in MIME, and with my own address suppressed so I get less SPAM.  


I know where I am posting this, but  I am having problems getting the list
to accept my subscription the way I prefer it. I will not mention it
again.
