Keith Dawson rightly complains about hassles in dealing with the switchover to my new mailing list.
I broke bloglet because I decided I’d rather manage the subscriptions in mailman, and just use bloglet to fetch new posts, concatenate them, and send them to mailman. Since I didn’t want subscribers to get two posts (from bloglet and mailman), and bloglet doesn’t allow me to unsubscribe people (which is why I preferred mailman), I deleted and then recreated the blog.
In my defense, though, this stuff if really hard. In summary, all former subscribers (and any new ones) will be on a mailman list that I can manage. Bloglet acts as a robot that fetchs my new posts every night and sends them to the mailman list. Everything should now be working right.

That’s a really cool idea! I’ll have to look into that.
I ran across this while doing a Google search in an effort to find out what happened to Bloglet. I haven’t received any emails in a few days, which happens from time to time, but this time the entire site seems to be down. I keep getting redirected to IE’s search page when I try to go there.
Oh, and I like your layout. (You’d have to take a fast look at mine to appreciate that. ;-} )
P.S. The “email this entry” feature, is that a plug in? I like it!
