R help - Dec 2005 - Comments please, how to set your mailer to read R-help in digest format

There are occasional comments on this list about how difficult it is to 
read the digest format. Since it took me a few false starts to configure my 
mailer to do it I have (with the encouragement of the list owner) put 
together a few hints. All I need now is for people who use other mailers to 
fill in the details in the same way as I have done for Eudora.

The draft is available at

Any other comments welcome of course.

I use google mail with a "R"-Label. In this way, all my R-Mails are
available in the R-Label-view and are searchable. The conversations are
instanteous updated and threadwise ordered. So it feels quasi the same as a
real newsgroup (which I would prefer btw).

[Well I think, it's a major space waste if everybody stores just the same
mails on his/her email account but since Google offers > 1 GB space, who
cares].

Best regards,
Hans-Peter
