|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | Post Office is a plugin for Movable Type that allows users to post to |
|---|
| 22 | their blog via email. It works by connecting Movable Type to an |
|---|
| 23 | existing email account, like GMail or any POP or IMAP compliant mailbox, |
|---|
| 24 | and periodically scanning for messages to post. Each user can be given |
|---|
| 25 | a unique email address to which to post to uniquely identify them and |
|---|
| 26 | the blog they want to post to when sending an email. |
