I still haven't found anything that made it so easy for a regular person to become a better essayist, in volume or quality, than Posterous and its auto email feature. Boy, how I miss it.

I'm a lazy programmer who would love to blog again, but needs something as easy as Posterous. Any suggestions, anyone?

FWIW raganwald, you're one of those who people should continue to pay attention to, even 140 characters at a time. I know I do. Please keep 'em coming!

Posthaven[1] (by the founders of Posterous), Svbtle[2] and Ghost[3] come to my mind.

I wrote that feature as part of an unrelated product in Rails over the course of a few days with the help of mailguns email-to-POST-request feature.

It's free for up to 200 emails per day. The most difficult parts were formatting issues between different HTML e-mail programs that you can probably ignore for your use case.

Edit: Oops, you said regular person. Didn't read carefully enough.
