Yes, a very easy way would be to install mailman
<http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/index.html>. Mailman just uses python,
which you already have installed, I'm not sure what other dependencies is
has. Anyway, you just need mailing list software that supports message
digests.
Then, just point your mail at a list with the appropriate people subscribed
in digest mode. This way you also have the flexibility of each user either
getting digest versions, or getting each individual e-mail--whichever they
prefer.
