Dixieland Jazz Mailing List


About the Dixieland Jazz Mailing List


DJML Logo The Dixieland Jazz Mailing List (DJML) is an open, unmoderated, Internet mailing list dealing exclusively with the discussion of America's original art form, Dixieland Jazz. The list is open to everyone, newcomers to the music who want to know more about this historic and exciting musical art form as well as to Dixieland Jazz musicians and aficionados.

The images shown here rotate between pictures that were taken at DJML "Face to Face" meetings. If you have a good picture to contribute, please let me know.

The Dixieland Jazz Mailing List was created by Peter Lovric in March 1995. Peter passed away in 1997. The mailing list is hosted free of charge by Islandnet in Peter's memory. The list is maintained by Bob Ringwald.

How to Subscribe to DJML

There are two ways to subscribe to the Dixieland Jazz Mailing List.

Strongly recommended is to visit the list's info website at:

http://ml.islandnet.com/mailman/listinfo/dixielandjazz

Alternatively, you may subscribe to the Dixieland Jazz Mailing List, by sending an email message to:

dixielandjazz-request@ml.islandnet.com

with the subject "subscribe" or, to receive a daily email which batches all submissions for that day into a single email "subscribe digest".
You may leave the body of the message blank.

Note that when subscribing either by email or via the web page, a confirmation email will be sent to you, to which you must respond. This prevents people unknown to you (or worse, yet, known to you in a bad way) from subscribing you without permission.

Note: If your server won't accept a message that has a blank text, try just putting 1 space or perhaps a couple of dashes in it.


Unsubscribing from DJML

To unsubscribe from the mailing list, follow the same procedure as to subscribe above, but change the word "subscribe" to "unsubscribe".

You may subscribe, unsubscribe, and manage many other options about your subscription by visiting the list's info page, as noted above.


Once you've successfully subscribed...

After you've successfully subscribed to the mailing list, you should receive notification that you've been added to the list accompanied with some instructions. It's a good idea not to post messages to the list right away. Lay low for a few days or weeks to get a feel for how the list works. A common mistake is to join the list and then immediately ask a question that's been asked (and answered) on the list dozens of times. To avoid this mistake, read the "DJML Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQ) before posting a question. Also, try searching the archive to see if the information you want has already been discussed.

Keep in mind that if your email address is unavailable for 4 consecutive deliveries, that your address will be automatically removed from the mailing list. This is to prevent "bounced" mail being returned (the equivalent of "return to sender, address unknown"). Should this happen, merely resubscribe to the list following the instructions above.

If your email address changes, it's possible that you would receive the DJML, but not be able to post messages. If this happens, you'll need to unsubscribe your old email address, and subscribe your new one. If you can't unsubscribe your old address for any reason, contact the list administrator (email link below).

If you're interested in purchasing music from other DJML members who have bands all around the world, or if you're interested in having your band's CDs listed, check out the Dixieland CD Source page. If you're interested in purchasing more commercial Dixieland Music (Louis Armstrong, Firehouse Five Plus Two, etc.) then follow the link to CD Now.

This list is unmoderated and uncensored (meaning that any mail you send to the list goes to all participants without being reviewed) so please adhere to the accepted norm of Email etiquette. If you're new to mailing lists, this includes:
