If Jonathan sees this he may be able to answer with more than guesswork,
but my own educated guess that this is strictly a matter of the way the
software program used for list maintenance is programmed. The Lyris
software used by B-Greek and other lists at metalabs.unc.edu (e.g.
B-Hebrew, Corpus Paulinum, Kata Markon) seems to be set up to prepare
digests this way and not to number the messages except in the initial
catalog of the previous day's messages in the order of their posting.
