I prefer to get the mailing list messages in the digest form. On the other hand, I like to use the onelist/yahoogroups numbering system for referencing the messages. So, I have written a Perl script which enumerates automatically the messages in the digests. However, the multiple messages, while getting through into the digests, are somehow filtered out in the yahoo-groups web page which leads to a mismatch of numbers. As a result, I have to clean up the files and renumber the messages manually {.uinai .o'onai .o'unaicai} I would be enormously grateful if you were more careful when sending the messages. co'o mi'e .evgenis.
