The full e-mail address of the submitter is contained in each individual
posting in the digest (rather than the table of contents, which would
probably look a lot more cluttered with the addresses included). I don't
know whether your e-mail program actually lets you see the address but
it is certainly there when the digest is sent out.

The digest contains every single message that goes across the main list 
(I wouldn't have time to moderate it, anyway). In fact my copy of 
yesterday's digest (issue 83) says

  strathspey Digest 18 Sep 2001 16:42:46 -0000 Issue 83

and message 27410 is actually there in the digest, too. If your digest
looks noticeably different I would be interested in the details, but as
far as I can tell everything that I can actually control is in order. If
your mail program makes a hash of it (which does seem to happen with
some of them) then this is obviously not something I can do a lot about.
