I recomend get a Google Mail account. This service is a webmail service but is excellent to keep traking of conversations in e-mail lists. I forgot digest subscription at all. Also you have 1 Gbyte to store all your messages for severals month or years. Unfortunately this is a service in beta and there is not public access to all people, except by an e-mail invitation of any of actual users when he/she receives one in his/her Inbox. There are people who sell gmail invitations in e-bay.
