Your headers claim you're using GNU Mailman 2.1.14.  (Current is
2.1.18, but probably gu.org won't get hacked due to Mailman if you
fail to upgrade.)  AFAIK Mailman doesn't send empty digests.  It's
possible that your MUA doesn't know how to handle the digests Mailman
sends properly.

As far as the frequency of digests, that is a configuration option.

Please discuss this with the gnu.org admins (if you care that much),
and if it seems like there is a bug or otherwise undesireable behavior
in GNU Mailman itself, direct questions to address@hidden
