I was having trouble finding documentation on the tick box for “Category mirrors a mailing list” in category settings. I wondering if this sends an email to everyone who has digest mode turned on. I have a special category in my community called Essential in which we rarely post.

What does "Category mirrors a mailing list" do?

@gerhard should answer this, I am not sure. It is experimental and new, so … beware!
