Unfortunately, it looks like it's time to repeat my message of March 28:

If you get GENEALIB in digest mode (if not, you can safely ignore the
rest of this message)...

...and you are responding to a message in the digest, please remember
to edit your subject line so that it looks like a response to the
original message (with the informative subject line), instead of
leaving it with an uninformative digest subject line.  Usually, you
can just copy and paste the subject line from the original message
into the subject line of the response message immediately after the
"Re" that your e-mail software inserts automatically (replacing the
subject line of the digest).

This is basic good practice for any electronic mailing list you may be
subscribed to.
