Vampyric Lore, Fact, and Fiction

Welcome to the home page of the VAMPYRES mailing list. For those of you who are wishing to join our email discussion list on Vampyric Lore, Fact, and Fiction, send mail to majordomo@the-institute.net with a message body of "subscribe vampyres-digest" for digest mode, or "subscribe vampyres" for single-post mode. For those not familiar with email discussion lists, digest mode is where the subscriber gets all the day's posts in on mailing (there can be more than one per day if the list volume is high). This is ideal for people who primarily wish to read the list posts, or do not like to deal with lots of additional mail. In single-post mode, the subscriber gets a copy of each post as is it made to the list. This is generally the best method for those who plan to be active participants.

For those who wish more information, or current listmembers looking for list resources, we offer the following
