Your e-mail program may be showing you only the first part and possibly 
requires that you download the rest.  Some e-mail clients have this built-in 
limit, or possibly it's set in the options somewhere.

You also might look VERY carefully.  Sometimes a poster will quote the whole 
damn message that he's replying to, and actual messages can get lost in 
there.  Today's digest has this a post like that...  And it appears to be a 
reply to a message which did the same thing...

Digests can be sent by either a time limit or a size limit.  When we get a 
digest with only four posts in it, like Issue 99, someone usually quoted 
seven other messages in their reply.
