How to Send Messages on Blogger
By Tommy Charles
Blogger is a blogging platform from Google that allows users to send blog posts directly from their email account as an email message. This feature enables them to communicate with their subscribers without having to log in to the Blogger website. The special email address that is created in the process can be used from anywhere, and from any Web browser. Users can set up their Blogger account to allow this feature in a few simple steps.
Log into your Blogger account.
Point the mouse cursor to the list of blogs that you own under the "Manage Blogs" header.
Click "Settings" on the blog that you want to work with.
Click "Email & Mobile."
Take note of the "Email Posting Address" entry. Choose a unique word that you will use as the second part of your Email Posting Address and type it into the box that says "SecretWord."
Click "Save Settings."
Log into your email account and click the "Compose Message" button.
Enter your Email Posting Address into the "To" field.
Enter the title of your blog post into the "Subject" field. Enter the blog post into the body of the email. Click "Send."

Tips
- When you are setting up your Email Posting Address you can specify whether or not the emails sent to it will be posted to your blog immediately, or whether they will be saved to your account as a draft.
Warnings
- Ensure that your "SecretWord" is kept secure. If anyone learns of it, they will be able to post messages to your Blogger account.
