Submitting via Email

You can submit articles to shmeng via email. This is easier for most people because you don't have to type in that little box, or copy and paste your article from a word processor or something. You can also use your email program's spell checker and save the editors some grief. There's a few things to keep in mind though.
  • Send to the right address - duh.
  • send FROM the right address - you have to send the mail from the same address that you're registered under or it won't work
  • Don't send attachments. Message sizes have to be under about 3k
  • Make sure it doesn't look like spam. Don't have more than 3 addresses in the To: box, and don't include common spam phrases like "Make Money Fast" or "Free Porn Here"
