[stylist] A question

[Jackie Williams]

Bridgit,
Okay, I think I understand digest mode, and I would not be interested, so do
not bother to give me instructions to find it.
Also, thanks for sharing your strategy.  Thanks. It is similar to mine, but
I find myself responding to very old  pieces sometimes.

Jackie,

First, Stylist is the only NFB NET listserve I read daily. If I miss a week
or more of posts from any list, including Stylist, I delete and move on to
current posts. I check my email frequently for other reasons, so I will take
time throughout the day to read Stylist emails. If the subject line does not
seem of interest to me, I won't even open it up. Also, I do not like digest
mode, at least with Stylist because digest mode only comes once or twice a
day, and I find it more tedious and difficult to weed through comments in
digest mode than deal with an over-flow of individual Stylist emails. In
non-digest mode, I see immediately who the post is from and the subject line
and can individually read or delete. I also do not have to read through any
other message than that immediate and recent one. I try to keep up with
Stylist, but at the end of the day, if I can't, I can't. Don't feel bad if
you can't get to us each day, smile. Life is not suppose to be spent on the
computer all day, LOL! We understand.

Bridgit

Everyone,
I am faced daily with the problem of whether to answer e-mails by going way
back to the ones I previously skipped due to lack of time. Then at least
fifty new ones come in the next day. 
I had been going back, thinking I could catch up, but now I have this long
tail.
Then I tried to start from the top, but something is lost in the sequence.
The situation now, is that I skipped all the cinquains because they are dear
to my heart, and I want to read them in the sequence they came in.
How do all of you who want to read everything manage reading everything on
the list, make appropriate answers, and not avoid giving feedback.  Everyone
is entitled to this, but it almost seems an impossibility to me at times. 
I do jealously guard some writing time, and just the functions of living
alone take up much time, plus arranging rides and managing medical and
service calls.
I love all of you, if one can feel this in cyberspace.
Please share your strategies.
 
Jackie Lee
