leven · Jackie Leven mailing list

The group describes itself as a mailing list about the “life, work and times” of Jackie Leven, his artistic influences, his earlier work as John St. Field and with Doll by Doll; it spreads news about concerts and records and permits a “limited exchange of mp3's” in the “Files” section. As a further address it gives www.jackieleven.com. In 2001/2002 it was open and unmoderated, in February 2003 “restricted membership”; the message archive was always accessible to members only.

The Yahoo archive begins in September 2000 (147 messages, October 347, November 201, December 214). In 2001 the monthly figures ranged between 103 and 290 (total for 2001: around 2,200), in 2002 between 50 and 230, in January/February 2003 at 284 and 311 – that is, roughly 3 to 10 messages a day. The message numbers stand at about 1070 in February 2001 and about 1470 in April 2001.
