   I am in the process of building my site and was curious if WP has a newsletter program built into it (if that makes sense) for sending out these newsletters. If not can anyone recommend a cheap (free is always nice) place to get newsletter templates that are catchy.

   I haven't sent out newsletters before would like to make it an option with my new site? Suggestions for programs, mistakes I should avoid? I have created a form for readers to sign-up for a newsletters as I have read in some places that subscribing to a blog doesn't mean you want them emailing you, is that correct?

   The blog I need help with is inlawoutlaws.wordpress.com.

   Yes. We subscribe to receive only posts by email and our email addresses are not meant to be used for any other purpose.

   WordPress.com does not supply a newsletter feature but there is a workaround you can use > WordPress.com Newsletter Subscriptions

   Thank you timethief :) This post recommends using the widget on your blog for people to sign up, so I am assuming if I specify in the sidebar that it is for a newsletter than it will be okay...
