Apologies for using bandwidth on the main mailing list, but my attempt to contact textmate-owner@lists.macromates.com bounced with a "not allowed to post" message, though I am subscribed to the list. The message I sent to the owner follows:
Hi, Is there any way to get a *daily* digest from the textmate-request list? I am receiving several e-mails each day, all relatively small sized, instead of a single digest per day. Each of these is labelled "textmate Digest" and carries a few messages, rarely more than five to seven. I understand, when the digest reaches a reasonably large size having it split up, but today, so far (and the day is only half over here), I have received digests at 0:19+0000 16K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 14 3:14+0000 20K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 15 6:41+0000 17K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 16 12:00+0000 9K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 17 15:53+0000 15K textmate Digest, Vol 31, Issue 18 That's a total of 77K in five separate messages; looking back over time, it seems as if no digest is ever allowed to grow much over 20K (the largest since I subscribed is 30K and there is only one of those; most are 20K or below). That seems way too low for a *digest*. The digests from the gcc list, for example, are regularly in the 50-80K range, and are much more useful in keeping related topics together than the textmate list is. Thanks in advance for your response.

That’s just a standard FAQ reply, since 90% of the mails sent to textmate-owner is people asking why they can’t send to this ML ;)

The “How big in Kb should a digest be before it gets sent out?” was set to 30, I have increased it to 200.
Based on the message sizes you quote, it seemed that even 30 Kb was not used. Let’s see if the new size has any effect…
