I wanted to enable my staff users to create posts by sending emails to a specific email address. I tried Zapier but it felt awkward. So I wrote a little tool that does just that: > **[GitHub - tillg/mail2ghost2mail: Interfacing Ghost with Emails: Sending out...](https://github.com/tillg/mail2ghost2mail)** > > Interfacing Ghost with Emails: Sending out emails when new posts are published and creating new posts by sending emails. - GitHub - tillg/mail2ghost2mail: Interfacing Ghost with Emails: Sending out... Feel free to use it. It’s free. Let me know if you like it or have input for modifications. ---

That’s interesting, I was just thinking the other day about being able to draft posts in an email and send them into a Ghost site. Have you thought about making this an online tool? ---

What do you mean by “Online tool”? A hosted service? Sorry, I don’t have the resources…
