Looks like things are back to normal, ---- I hope!

I just received G4 Digest #3324 after subscribing yesterday.

Last Saturday, I got over 100 digests with archival traffic beginning 23 Nov
2002 in #2780.  I unsubscribed when the count got up to 2884 for 5 Mar 2003.
I tried to subscribe immediately at the web site by filling a box on the web
page.  That generated some confirmation requests which I answered, but no
digests arrived.  Yesterday, I subscribed again, but this time I used the
link for <G4-ON at lists.themacintoshguy.com> and then converted to digest
mode.  That worked, for now.

Have the folks using the individual message mode been bothered with the
archival traffic?
