Is anyone else having this problem with umichum addresses? The
system there reports back this generic error (invalid name) without
indentifying the problem id. Yes I know I can send a message to each
of the umichum subscribers and test the id's. But it seems like
e-mail technology should have matured by now so that we would get back
an intelligible error message. Is there some way to apply peer pressure
on the folks at umichum to re-configure that system? --ralph papakhian

Colleagues,
 
This seems to be my week for posting messages to the list.  A graduate student
working on Telemann instrumental music has been in touch with Joachim Jaenecke
of the Musikabteilung of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, Preuss. Kulturbesitz.
In response to questions that she had, he referred her to a new publication:
 
Georg Philipp Telemann Autographe und Abschriften : Katalog / bearbeitet von
Joachim Jaenecke.  Muenchen : Henle, 1993.  453 p. : ill., music. (Katalog
der Musikabteilung / Staatsbibl. zu Berlin, Preuss. Kulturbesitz. R. 1,
Handschriften ; 7)
 
I have a Harrassowitz order slip in hand for this item, and we will probably
order it.  Her need is great, and more immediate than we can provide.  Has
anyone in MLA-land actually received this item?  Anyone in the Midwest Chapter?
Thanks for your help.
