4. Click the link Login Required
5. Click the appropriate link to:
   • Subscribe or Unsubscribe
   • Search Archives by entering a search string in the text field beneath Advanced Options, and then clicking the Search button
   • Search Archives by clicking the Search button with the field blank — using this second strategy quickly loads a search page with fields for subject, author's address, and date range

Notes

• All University supported email lists are managed by the Miami LISTSERV server
• The LISTSERV main archives page lists all public Miami LISTSERV lists. List owners may choose whether to have their lists appear in the public archive. You can view a list's archive, if you know the name of the list; and you can access the list archives directly using the list name as part of the URL. In some cases, archives are restricted to subscribers to the list. You must provide a valid email address that is subscribed to the list and the corresponding password
