This is not the way it works in MM 2.1. In MM 2.1, the volume
increments and the issue resets to one for the first digest produced
in a new period, where period is Year, Quarter, Month, Week or Day as
set in Digest options -> digest_volume_frequency. The issue increments
for each digest produced in that period whether the digest is produced
'periodically' or by size. If there are no posts/digests produced
during a period, the volume doesn't increment for that period.
