I would like users to be able to choose which categories they would like to receive email notifications about when new posts are added. Is there an exsisting plug-in with this functionality.
Please don’t be confused with subscribe2’s global category exclusion setting.
I don’t believe subscribe2 allows users to choose categories at the time of subscribing.
Thanks in advance.

There’re 2 options I can think of right now:
- MailPress is insanely configurable with a huge number of features for making your blog deliverable by email with many many options such as which categories to include/exclude, multiple newsletter groups etc… You can make email themes too so all of your blog’s emails can be nicely styled HTML emails.
- You can make feedburner subscriptions for any of the feeds your site can output eg. any URL on your site with
/feed/
added to the URL. The FeedSmith extend plugin allows you to burn feeds for categories and tags as well.
