I'd like to second the following request (digest form, sorting by title).  However,
I'd be unlikely to use it until it could manage threads.  Sorting by threads is
my best way of dealing with the volume of this list in a reasonable amount of time.

I'd rather see the headers sorted by title instead of time. That would put

I'll log that as a requested feature.  I need to wait a bit and see if people
actually start using the digest features before allocating more time to it.

BTW, if things were sorted by subject-line, then there would be repetition,
which could be collapsed, so perhaps instead, a simple addition would suffice
instead of a replacement:  for example, a list of topics/threads, such as:
