I know but we had the single mail mode as a default in the early days of
this list. It seemed like most people were too *** to either set up
filters (I this OutlookExpress does not even allow Reply-To filters
(there are other filters though but no reply-to filter at least in my
version)) or to change to digest mode and kept on complaining about too
much mails...
