Here&#8217;s what I mean by those two terms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\ud83d\udd12\ufe0f <strong>Security<\/strong> &#8211; it will post <em>every single email<\/em> sent to your private email address.

It&#8217;s also super flexible when it comes to formatting. The only downside is <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/tighten-wordpress-security\/\">security<\/a> &#8211; if anyone discovers the email address that Jetpack generates, they&#8217;ll be able to post to your blog.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\ud83d\udd0c <strong>Postie <\/strong>&#8211; this plugin is a little bit more complicated to set up because you&#8217;ll have to create and configure your own Gmail account, but it gives you <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-security-tips\/\">better security<\/a> and still offers lots of formatting options.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\ud83d\udc49If ease of setup is #1 to you, <a href=\"#pick-jetpack\">pick Jetpack<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\ud83d\udc49If security is #1 to you, <a href=\"#pick-postie\">pick Postie<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pick-jetpack\">WordPress post by email with Jetpack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-jetpack-plugin\/\">other reasons to use Jetpack<\/a>, but among its many other features, it can also help you write a WordPress post by email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started, you&#8217;ll need to install Jetpack and sync it to an existing WordPress.com account (<em>or create a new WordPress.com account<\/em>).

content<\/a>, including images, and controlling other information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you can use shortcodes to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Specify the category<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/schedule-upcoming-posts-in-wordpress\/\">Set a publish time<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Title your post<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a

get set up, you&#8217;ll send emails to this Gmail account to post them on your blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
