I wonder how many others want an Abridged mode - one that points out every updated Topic since the last email (not necessarily recapping posts).

In fact, I’m not sure how clear it is that Digest is NOT a full recap.

It’s not clear at all to our users, most of which came from the mailing list world, where “digest” meant a single message containing a batch of threads. That’s what they’re looking for when they see “Digest” arrive, but are not getting.
