The problem with digest mode comes when a large thread has everyone
replying inline with all of the previous emails included. We ran
into this issue with SYN/HAK's mailing list. Eventually, after X
amount of replies, if everyone keeps just hitting the "reply" button
and adding their comments, the digest goes out after every single
email.<br>
<br>
The reason for this is because mailman works under the principle of
buckets for digests. You fill the bucket, the digest gets sent
out. The bucket is set to 20KB normally, and a thread with a good
15-20 replies could easily trigger that with each email. We
increased the bucket size to 120KB and haven't heard any issues from
people lately.<br>

I read it as the opposite. "lamavano" doesn't translate
in any of the<br>
major translator sites so maybe that modifies?<br>
