James and Juan:

You MUST send your digest-mode request from EXACTLY the same e-mail
address under which you're subscribed.  Many of us have e-mail
servers that subtly change our addresses... For example, my address
is "fastfwd@ix.netcom.com", but my ISP arbitrarily stamps my outgoing
mail "fastfwd@popd.ix.netcom.com", "fastfwd@pop2.ix.netcom.com",
etc.

If you can't find a way to force your e-mail to go out with exactly
the same username as the one under which you're subscribed, Jory
Bell may be able to change your subscription format directly.  His
e-mail address is jory@mit.edu.
