Blogger has exciting options when it comes to email and blogging. While you can post through your mobile phone, you can also post to your blog using a standard web-mail gateway such as Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail. Get notified by email every time someone submitted a comment in your blog posts. In addition, send a new post automatically to your contacts in an email form. Here are the steps on how to enjoy that feature.
How to post using email:
If you do not like to open Blogger and create a post, you can easily send an email to Blogger and let it publish for you. Here is how to do that:
1. Go to Settings at the left side of the New Blogger Interface.
2. Click the Mobile and Email option.
3. The Email settings are under the Mobile setting. On the first line, you can see an incomplete email address. It contains your username, secret words, and then Blogger’s domain. Every blog has this email address. It is up to you on what would type on the “secret words” part in order to have a unique email address. Your blog’s email address may go like this username.myblog1@blogger.com. Save that email address to your contacts because that will be the working email of your blog. It means that your blog is now like an email client that when someone sends a message to your email address, your blog will post it automatically.
4. Below it are three options. You can choose to publish immediately any email send to that address without any moderation. This might not be safe because if someone found out your blog’s email address, he or she can freely post to your blog. You can also choose to save as draft post any email send to that address giving you time to moderate or edit your post before finally publishing it. Alternatively, if you do not like this feature, you can simple disable it.
How to setup your comment notification email:
If you would like to receive email notifications every time someone wants to publish a comment on your blog post, you can simply go to the Comment Notification Email box and type any working email to receive the notification. You can also choose directly from your contacts. You can add up to 10 emails and you must put a comma among each of them.
How to email your blog posts:
If you would like to send new blog posts automatically after publishing it to some of your contacts, you can go to the “Email Posts To” option and click the ADD link. You can add up to 10 emails and they will receive your blog posts as emails every time you publish in your blog.
