ATHG is an an unmoderated listserv group, so whatever is sent to the listserv gets distributed automatically (with the exception of posts that the people who run the listservs at Miami University regard as SPAM advertising). This explains why occasionally a post intended for an individual gets sent to the listserv group as a whole. Why is ATHG an unmoderated listserv group? Essentially to save my time since I manage the ATHG listserv by myself (in contrast to the H-Net listservs which have a team of editors who rotate responsibilities).
