The dates are formatted MM-DD-YYYY (e.g. the most recent digest for this instance had subject `[Discourse Meta] Digest for 03-21-2015`), which isn’t correct everywhere. I guess it may be particularly jarring on a non-English-language instance where there’s little connection to the US and its date format.

One solution would be [https://meta.discourse.org/t/remove-the-date-bit-from-the-digest-emails-subject-line/22410](https://meta.discourse.org/t/remove-the-date-bit-from-the-digest-emails-subject-line/22410) .

(I personally think this is fairly minor (even as someone from outside the US), but others may find it more annoying.)
