Various people have made this same complaint from time to time.
I have checked with the maintainers of the info-unix digest gateway,
and nobody is editing out the FAQ posting from the digest.  It is merely
a mail reflector that sends out every posting that comes in.

It could be that the size of the FAQ posting makes that particular issue of the
digest too large for your mailer to handle.  The current posting is
over 40K in size.   (I am trying my best to keep it from growing much larger.)
