Most followers of this blog will be following updates via RSS readers or automated Twitter postings, however I’ve had some requests to also offer email subscriptions for people who don’t make use of RSS readers or Twitter.
I’ve chucked up a receive-only Mailman mailing list which takes the RSS feed and sends out simple HTML emails when new posts are created, allowing you to read entirely in your mail client, or follow the link to the post itself.
Just click the “Mailing List” icon in the right-side column and enter your email address to receive updates.
I chose Mailman for this list since it handles bounce and membership handling very nicely, certainly better than a dodgy WordPress plugin is going to be able to do.
