Groups E-Mail Digest - Roadmap ID 15126
Digests are hard to pull off well. Too long and they just become another case of too much information. Too short and they don't provide enough info to be useful.
The Yammer digests have always been useless to me, usually falling on the "too short" side, and not surfacing the most relevant and important info. Not sure what signals will be used to ensure the most useful info is included in these digests.
And is it one digest for all your groups, or one per group? Any way to control the timing (the random timing of the Message Center digest is irritating)? If I'm pushing group messages to a folder with an inbox rule and checking them sporadically will this digest get caught up in the same rule, therefore not being read anyway? Outlook items only (no Planner summary, Teams summary, etc)?
Like let each Group determine if they want the digest at all individually?

My read of the Message Center notice is that you'll get the digest(s) if you're subscribed to receive Group emails. Which seems odd to me. If I'm already getting the Group emails, I don't need a digest. But if I'm not subscribed to the Group emails, a weekly digest might actually be useful. So to me the feature would be of most value if I can subscribe or just receive a digest as separate options.

Hi,
Is there a way to turn off the digest emails that users receive?
Thanks,
Shaun

Has anyone ever received a groups digest? I haven't. Has this been rolled out?
I totally forgot about that.
