What is the msa-members mailing list? What is the msa-discuss mailing list? How do I subcribe to (sign up for, join) either of these lists?

The msa-members list is the principal way the MSA communicates essential information to its membership. Msa-members is intended to be a low-traffic list whose content is restricted to announcements from the MSA executive committee, the annual conference organizer, and the editor(s) of Modernism/Modernity.

Msa-discuss is an electronic mailing list for more discursive communication on topics relevant to the study of Modernism. Msa-discuss is restricted to members of the MSA but is otherwise unmoderated.

For more information on these lists, including policies and instructions for subscribing or unsubscribing, see this page.

I'm getting too much email and want to unsubscribe from msa-members. How do I do that?

Msa-members is the principal means through which the MSA communicates with its membership. Unsubscribing from msa-members means potentially missing out on important information about your association, the annual conference, or Modernism/Modernity.

Members still wishing to unsubscribe should visit http://chaos.press.jhu.edu/mailman/listinfo/msa-members and follow the instructions for unsubscribing.

Please do not post "unsubscribe" messages to the list. They will not achieve your aim.

I know I'm subscribed to the msa-members list, but when I try to post something, I get a message that says I'm not. What's going on?

You are probably subscribed under one email address but are trying to post to the list with another. You can see your subscribed email address by going to the list's information page. At the bottom of that page is a section headed "Msa-members Subscribers;" follow the directions there to visit the subscribers list or change it.

I'm receiving multiple copies of messages sent to msa-members or msa-discuss. How can I rectify the problem?

If you are receiving multiple copies of email messages sent to msa-members, it is probably because you are subscribed to the list with different email addresses. It is quite easy to discover whether this is the case and to remedy the problem:

1. Go to http://chaos.press.jhu.edu/mailman/listinfo/msa-members
2. You'll see a section headed "Msa-members subscribers;" one of the options below this heading is "Visit Subscriber List."
3. Enter your email address (i.e., one of the email addresses under which you receive messages from msa-members) and the password associated with that address (you received a password when you subscribed to the list; if you have lost it see here).
4. Click on the Visit Subscriber List button. You'll be taken to a page listing the email addresses of all the subscribers to msa-members, save those who have chosen to be anonymous. (The at-sign @ in these addresses has been replaced with text to evade spammers.)
5. Search the list to find your redundant email address(es). For each of them, do the following:
   1. Click on the address
   2. On the resulting page, click on the Unsubscribe button.
   3. When the confirmation email arrives, follow the instructions to complete the unsubscription.

NB: if you already know the redundant email address, you do not have to search the subscriber's list; simply go to http://chaos.press.jhu.edu/mailman/listinfo/msa-members and click on Unsubscribe or edit options.
