Greetings,
I developed a plugin to make it very easy to add a "Subscribe via Email" box to your sidebar. Your readers can subscribe to your RSS or ATOM feed without leaving your site.
Review the instructions and access the download at the following address:

Could you describe the way it works more?
Is it a daily digest, or does it email the subscriber instantly when you post? (That would be bad, for me, because I often post and then Edit to get it right... don't want to send a new email for every edit).
Also how is it related to Feedlinx?
Thanks!

Feedlinx is the service that manages the email subscriptions. It tracks the "emailed" status individually for each post and each subscriber.
The subscription is controlled by the subscriber. It is automatically setup for Auto-Poll (every 15 minutes). If the subscriber sets up a schedule, they can control the delivery day and times. They can choose to combine the posts into a single email.
If you are constantly editing posts, then this might not be a good option for you. Feedlinx doesn't check for post content changes. Most likely, the first draft would be the only one to go out. Feedlinx tracks post title and date changes -- so these changes would trigger a separate update email.
Feedlinx has a management feature for publishers who want to manage their maillist. It is currently "inactive" because there were some people who didn't want to share their email addresses with the publishers. I'm developing an opt-out mechanism for subscribers who don't want to share their email addresses with blog publishers. Then I'll rollout the maillist features again.
