The Mail-to-Weblog feature for Manila has been released:

“The Mail-to-Weblog feature makes it easy to post to your weblog by simply sending an email to your site. When this feature is enabled, Manila periodically checks for new messages in a POP email account that you specify, and posts new messages whose subject matches your "secret subject" to your weblog.”

The feature is available now on all UserLand-hosted Manila sites. Here’s how to enable Mail-to-Weblog in your own Manila site.

If you run a Manila server, here’s how to enable Mail-to-Weblog for your users.

As a part of this feature, an update to tcp.getMail allows you to supply the address of a callback script, which can determine whether email messages will be deleted from the POP account, or left on the server.

When Manila’s Content Editor role was initially implemented, the static rendering feature was not taken into account. While Content Editors could create and edit any content in a Manila site, they had no way to render their changes if the static rendering feature was in use.

We’ve done a review of the Content Editor role as applied to sites which use static rendering, and have released fixes for a few related bugs. See this page for details.
