Re: subscription by email
Hi!
No. You can use the "send mail" plugin and set it up to post to a mailinglist. Then you can point your users to subscribe to that mailinglist. Google and Yahoo offer free hosted mailinglists.

I am not sure what your problem is. It sounds like a problem within the configuration manager of serendipity? If yes, you can try to temporaly disable java-script and reload the page. An other possibility would be to delete the plugin-directory manually.
For the newletter option, you don't have to use the feedburner-plugin. You can just install a serendipity_html_nugget_plugin and offer the link to subscription. In my case this is <nolink>http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailver ... DE</nolink>

Hi Thanks for this email subscription post. Its what i am after.
I have an edit button under mu email subceiption, do u know how to remove this.
Is there a way to bypass the verification feedburner page, and to redirect it to my blog after they have subscribed. Just want to make it as simpnle as possible?
Cheers

I think, the edit button of the blog ist only visible if you are logged in as administrator. Normal user will not see it.
I dont know a way to bypass the verification page. But I think, you can at least customize the content within feedburner. Also it is posssible to include your logo in the mails and customize the style of them.
Tipp: If you enter your blog url in the profile, people could give your some more direkt feedback.

Serendipity uses php's mail function to send mail. This function depends entirely on the server setup.
For that, you'd need to ask your hosting provider how PHP's mail function is handled.
However, many providers will refuse to send mail if the "from" address is not recognized as one of their own. Check your blog's configuration, and make sure the email is an address from your provider, as opposed to your home email.

What are we talking about? Sending mail with serendipity or with feedburner. Feedburner sends a mailnewsletter only once a day (time is adjustable) and only if new posts are recognized.
I tested it, it works OK in my setup. I my case I don't inform feedburner with a ping about new posts, but it rereads my feed every about 30 minutes.

What are you guys talking about !!!
Thanks for the info got it working. It was indeed the email address in sdy setup, just changed this to my exetel address which i don't use. ( this is where my blog is hosted).Would be good to send it from my default email address. but this will do.
Cheers and merry christmas
