Notifications

Hello there!
I was wondering why the notifications don't work. I would like my blog readers to be able to receive notifications through e-mail when I publish a new post (and I'd like to be able to have this feature on my blog as well). I've tried adding e-mails to the notifications section but nothing worked.
Can this be helped?

1 I've never tried it, but it should work.

I'll get out my +2 Stick of Poking and see if I can do something with it.

2 It works but the notification system is manual. After you post and the page comes back up letting you know that the post was published scroll down a bit to the notify section. You'll have options to send the whole post, part of the post, and/or a message. I used to use this on my Zero Intelligence blog until I got too many subscribers and too may posts and went to a listserv system.

Incidentally, I'm using PHPlist for the notifications now and it's great. It's in your Cpanel.

3 Hmmmm, I briefly thought about giving folks the ability to be notified when I posted. But then I realized they already have it, if they want it. Just load up my RSS feed into their favorite news aggregator and away they go.
