How do the email updates work?

If you'd like to receive an email each time we update the site please enter your email address in one of the boxes at the top of the page. Both services are free, and the emails contain a link to unsubscribe if you wish.

Why are there two different choices?
Mainly because we've only had a short time to test them so we don't really know which is the best. In the limited testing we've done RMail seems to be the best for two reasons:
Firstly because it seems on average to send the notification emails more promptly (although both will usually send them out within a few hours), and secondly because the format looks better and it includes the title of the latest post as the email subject (instead of just 'Update Alert').

Whichever one you choose to use you might want to add the sending address to your email address book, this may help to avoid them getting identified as Spam:

RMail: Rmail@kbcafe.com
Bot A Blog: bot@botablog.com
