So you also got them. Lots of "abridged" mails from long-past dates. I
wonder what happened.

The only list where I'm subscribed in "abridged" form is vim_mac,
because only rare threads on that list concern me, and that one is
well-behaved, sending me one summary a day and nothing more. In all the
other lists where I'm subscribed (vim_use, vim_dev and vim_multibyte), I
want to get the full posts into my POP3 mailbox. Well, let's hope that
all those outdated summaries won't stop the flow of "current" full mails.

Best regards,
Tony.

I must add my voice to this also.  I just got all of the abridged stuff.  However, up front I also want to say that I did (after seeing all of the e-mail) go to Google and set my preferences to reading everything online rather than continue to get the e-mails.  If you all get a ton of messages from me which are abridged - then there is probably something wrong with Google's set up.  Because all I'm doing presently - is just reading the e-mails.
