When you send your SUBSCRIBE message, you should receive a response within 24 hours. If no response has been received
it may be because of the following:
a) The message was sent to Webmaster@carfax.co.uk. The SUBSCRIBE message should
always be sent to SARA@Carfax.co.uk b) You may have included other text in the body of
the message. When subscribing you must only type the instruction SUBSCRIBE followed by the acronym i.e. if you wanted to subscribe
to Journal of Youth Studies you would type SUBSCRIBE JYS c) When subscribing to a cluster, you need to make sure that you type the full name of the cluster followed by -C i.e. SUBSCRIBE LAW-C d) If there is more than one word in the cluster name you must separate each word with a hyphen i.e. SUBSCRIBE ADDICTION-SCIENCES-C e) Mis-configured Microsoft Mail systems.
