)I have started a mailing list, and the volume is getting out of hand, so I
)am thinking about digesting it.  Is there some way of doing this automatically?

There is a program in SIMTEL I believe which does this. You should
find this on wuarchive.wustl.edu (/mirrors/unix-c/mail/digest.c). 

There is a companion program in the same directory (undigestify.c)
which undigests the digested message (if the message is saved from the
mail/news program as a mailbox file). Advanced mail readers like mush,
MH etc. have the undigest feature in them. This program would be
useful for people having the Berkeley mail program which doesn't have
that feature.
