As promised, today I'm releasing a new version of Scribe that makes use of my new PowerMail plugin, if available. As I said yesterday, this new version will send email from and to you -- the author -- but BCC to your subscribers. Doing so will cut the number of messages sent by up to a factor of 100. In addition if you use Google Mail for your domain, as I do, then using PowerMail to route outbound email through gmail will make your messages look less spammy to the receiving mail server than if you used some other mail relaying service.
I've also fixed a bug where the link included in the double opt-in activation email led to a page that didn't render (though the activation was still successful).
Enjoy, and as always, please submit bug reports and feature requests via the RIAForge project page.

PowerMail is a Mango Blog plugin that improves on the mail utility
included with Mango. In particular, it adds BCC support (useful for
plugin developers who want to send email with a BCC), and enables you
to connect to SMTP servers that require SSL or TLS authentication
and/or a custom port number; including GMail and Google Mail for
Domains.

I'm happy to finally announce Scribe version 1.3. This version fixes two bugs (an error thrown in admin in rare cases, and an issue with scheduled jobs -- again, in rare cases), as well as adds a new feature: the ability to compose an HTML message and send it as an email to your subscribers.
SVN and the ZIP on RIAForge have been updated; or you can use the auto-install url below. As always, please use my contact form for feedback, or submit bugs and enhancement requests via the RIAForge bug form.
Enjoy!

Just a quick note to say that I'm releasing a new version of my Scribe plugin for Mango Blog. This version adds the ability to add a blurb of text to the pod content, so it's not just a title, text box and submit button. You can edit the text blurb on the Scribe settings page, and it's blank by default.
You can see it in use in my sidebar right now.
Enjoy!
