[Baypiggies] questions from a noob/ python-tutor volume

Most high volume mail lists have digests you can subscribe to.
This way you get all the mail for a given time frame in one packet.
Sometimes you'll get several packets a day, which may contain 20-30
individual mails.

Each packet shows up as one huge email containing all the individual
messages, and can be read with just about any email client, or a web
browser.

It's quite convenient, and the Tutor list has this option as well.
