Remembering the email option

I'm waiting on Posthaven to come out with their themes until the end of December, as they've promised. It's been a long nine- or ten-month wait. It had better be worth it.
 
At the same time, I really like the option to post by email and it becoming an email discussion at the same time it's posted on site. I've not taken advantage of that.
 
The demise of email has been loudly heralded. But if fax machines are still around, it's not likely that such a common means of communication will soon go by the wayside. Marketers, though they are by no means the harbingers of technology and trends, still tout email lists as the best way to get a message out there.
 
I'm testing the quote feature, pay no mind.
 
Must be that year-end itchiness to regroup, reevaluate, redefine things, but I've been looking more at Known, RedMatrix, GNUsocial, and TiddlySpace, etc., and how to best use them, or if to use them further. Are there too many good options out there? Or do all of them offer something unique?
 
I'm leaving my email sig in this time to see if Posthaven removes it, as I seem to remember it will. Anything below here?
