If your e-mail facility can't filter ADSM-L to a folder of its own, it would
be overwhelming!

There are a few possibilities.

1. Consider the "daily digest" of the list.  The list software sends you
one (or a few) e-mail(s) each day.  This (these) e-mail file contain all
the postings in a group ... a compendium, if you please.  To change
your subscription to daily digests, send e-mail to

      LISTSERV AT vm.Marist DOT edu

and in the body of the e-mail enter

      set adsm-l digests

(without using a signature block).

Also note there are two formats of daily digests: MIME and NOMIME.
LISTSERV will select one or the other depending on the e-mail
headers in e-mail you send.  If you or your e-mail program don't like
the one you get, switch to the other format.  For example,

      SET ADSM NOMIME

2. View the posts through one of the WWW online archives.  There is
one at Marist College, as well as an excellent one at

      http://www.ADSM.org/

The latter has a good search mechanism.

Hope this helps, wayne
