Digest Format

In the past week or two, the format of the Digest has changed. It used to be
that you could read the shorter digests as regular e-mails, and the longer
ones were in .MIM format, which could easily be read on word processing
software. Now, even the shortest digests are in .MIM format, and the longer
ones are now .ZIP files. When you unzip the file, each separate message is
in its own .TXT file, which have to be opened one at a time, with no clue as
to their contents. To open each file is so time consuming that it is not
worth it. Can Shamash change back to using only .MIM formats for Digests?
