Thanks again, Alicia. 
So, the digest consists of bundles of emails received at a later date. 
 Like you, I also have selected subscribe for all mail, and also miss some.  If we humans were as
fickle and capricious as technology, we wouldn't have jobs.

Alice,

When you join Nuestros Ranchos or at anytime of your choosing, you can set
or change your preferred settings for the mailing lists on Nuestros
Ranchos. Log into Nuestros Ranchos and you'll see the 7 bullets on the
right hand side, select Mailing Lists and you can select how it is that you
want to subscribe to each of the mailing lists.

  - Post a forum topic
  - Create content
  - Latest images
  - Mailing Lists
  - Recent posts
  - My account
  - Log out

  1. If you're going on vacation or just don't want to receive mail from
  Nuestros Ranchos, you would check the No mail (temporarily disable delivery)
  2. If you want to receive your email from Nuestros Ranchos in a bundle
  every day, rather than receiving it as it streams in on a daily basis, you
  would check subscribe for digest.
  3. Or you can select, Subscribe for all mail (normal delivery) this is
  to get your emails one at a time as they are sent and received at Nuestros
  Ranchos. I have mine set at Subscribe for all mail, although there have
  been problems with the server and I have not been receiving all messages
  for quite some time now, but Joseph and Arturo have been working hard to
  correct this and I believe there may be other volunteers that are assisting
  with this. I hope this helps you.

No mail (temporarily disable delivery)
Subscribe for digest (receive emails in a bundle)
Subscribe for all mail (normal delivery)
