Yes this is what I do.
I suspect many people subscribe to the digest to avoid getting many
statalist emails in their inbox. But, since these all come from the
statalist server, it's comparatively simple to set up a filter that
transfers them to separate mail folder created specifically for Stata
emails.
In essence, this folder becomes the equivalent of the digest, but much
easier to work with since all the emails are still separate.

Many (most?) email programs let you set up filters. I have all
statalist messages go to a separate folder, where I can read or not
read them at my leisure. Without filters, statalist messages would
make it much more difficult to find all the other stuff I should be
paying attention to.
