Please send messages in plain text: no styles, HTML, special fonts, graphics files, or nonstandard characters (except diacriticals, which are acceptable). Signature files are subject to editing for content and length. Advertisements in signatures will be removed. Remove or turn off .vcf, digital signatures, or other automatic attachments. 

As a rule, editors do not redistribute attachments to the list; consider posting the material at a web site, or consult with the editor concerning proper venues for publication.

Send a message to all subscribers

All mails to the list must be signed. The editors will delay posting until authorship and e-mail address are confirmed.

Send your message to h-arthist@h-net.msu.edu. It will not be posted at once, but edited by our staff. 

Reply to a list message 

To reply to a message so that all subscribers can read it, be sure that the outgoing reply is directed to H-ArtHist@h-net.msu.edu, and not to the original author or to the editor. 

Replies intended only for individual authors should be sent directly to the author.

To subscribe

If you do not want to use our online questionnaire or should you need to resubscribe, send the following command (turn off signatures, styles/fonts, and word wrap if you expect the line to wrap), as an email message to listserv@h-net.msu.edu:

SUB H-ARTHIST your name, institution

Example: sub H-ARTHIST Jane Smith, Illinois State U.

Follow the instructions in the reply that LISTSERV will send you in response to this command.

To unsubscribe or change address, Vacation

NEW: You can change your subscription through an online form.

If you do not have access to your old account, then write to the list address (hah-redaktion@h-net.msu.edu) and have an editor make the change for you; be sure to provide your old and new addresses.

Instead of using the online form, you can also update or cancel your subscription settings by using the following e-mail commands:

To unsubscribe, logon to the computer account from which you subscribed to the list, and send this message to listserv@h-net.msu.edu:

SIGNOFF H-ARTHIST

Please unsubscribe from H-ARTHIST and all other mailing lists if you are terminating a particular computer account. You can then resubscribe from the new account. 

If you have access to your old account, login to it and send the command: 

CHANGE H-ARTHIST yournewaddress

Example: CHANGE H-ARTHIST jsmith@ilstate.edu

You then must login to the NEW account to confirm the change, or it will not be executed. If you do not have access to your old account, then write to the list address and have an editor make the change for you; be sure to provide your old and new addresses.

If you are away for an extended period, suspend H-ArtHist email by sending this to listserv@h-net.msu.edu

After vacation, you can resume by sending to listserv@h-net.msu.edu:
