WordPress.com, one of the most used blog host, now allows users to post text and images by email. If you are at work with Outlook or on the move with a BlackBerry and wanted to publish at quick post, this feature can be extremely useful.

Post by Email, is simple to use.

From the new ‘My Blogs’ menu you can generate special email addresses. You can create as many email addresses as you need, one for each blog you have access to.

You can send email from any email client, whether in a browser, on your desktop, or from your cell phone and as much formatting will be retained as possible.

Your images will be included and automatically converted into thumbnails. If you include multiple images, they’ll be converted into a gallery.

If you’ve purchased the Space Upgrade then MP3 attachments will be displayed using our audio player. If you’ve purchased the VideoPress upgrade then you can also include videos.

Post by Email Features:

• Transcoding of any video files supported by the WordPress video player (mp4, mov, wmv, avi, mpg, and m4v).
• Add your email addresses directly into your address book using downloadable vCards. (You don’t even need to remember the address)
• Automatic notification of a published email post.
• Automatic removal of standard signature blocks, with support for manual removal of other signatures.
• Conversion of YouTube URLs into embedded videos.
