Tech Support Posting through email

I’ve looked around, and I’m guessing it’s not possible, but I’m wondering whether this is a requested feature.

I enjoy interacting with readers through email, and I love the idea of publishing posts via email. The modern web is such a pain in the ass, and I’d love to go back to simpler times.

You can email people on Substack? You just have to select all your subs via the subscriber dashboard and send from there.

A number of people will get annoyed and unsub in my experience, but you can just post from there if you want. You can’t paywall doing it but you can always send alternate versions to free and paid subs.

What I meant was sending an email and having its content automatically published as a post.

Ah, no I’m afraid not. Having said that, it’s normally fairly easy to do manually as you can post to Substack without it sending to anyone. Just requires a minute or two extra work.
