When I subscribe to a new blog the delivery option always comes up as "never." I have to go into the blog's settings and set it to "instantly" or some other option by hand. Obviously NOT the way it should behave.

Shouldn't a new email subscription be delivered by default?

Hope that works. Another question if you don't mind. I have had a few people subscribe to my blog via email, they have clicked the activation link in their inbox but they do not show up n my blog (email) followers. Nor do they receive new posts, any reason why this is? Would like to fix asap as have had a few people subscribe recently.
Thanks

I also have the same question, don't see any option for email post notifications to be a summary rather than the whole post.

Thanks!

I've noticed when people follow/subscribe to your blog via email, they receive an email of your full post. I'm wondering if you can change settings so that the email only shows a preview instead. I want followers to be able to click to view the full post so that they actually open my blog and increase my stats.
Thanks
