>wrt duplicates not coming through the list

I never got any duplicates from outside the list, all were inside digests.
Duplicates from offlist cannot reach me due to draconic mail filters on the
way.

On another line: Messages in digests are separated by a line like this:

------------------------------

this is not such a good idea, since many people use such lines in thie .sigs
etc., and LISTSERV does not escape them.  Could this be changed to a MIME
style separator like:

--------------05Ba_2436547889322az

? (but without making it a proper MIME separator so readers don't split it
into parts). The number could be fixed - perhaps a md5sum of a date string
or something. This would be really useful for us digest readers.
