Subject: Digest page or email? 

We have about 10 logbooks running on the same Elog that all get fair use. Many people have turned off new entry emails because they were filling up inboxes, but are still interested in what's new. I saw the option to add "?last=1" to the start page, although I'm afraid using it might cause confusion over how to get to the older posts.

I was trying to figure out a way of creating a "digest" of sorts, a list of entry subjects posted in the past day or week, something similar to what's generated by "?last=1?mode=threaded", but for every logbook (similar layout to the selection page with nested logbooks). This could either be a page, or a regular email.

Is there way to generate such a cross-logbook page? What about a scheduled email formatted based on a given filter?

PS: The elog has been invaluable to us, a big thanks to all involved!
