Like most plugins, the MailPress plugin can be installed simply by downloading the ZIP or RAR file, uncompressing it, copying the mailpress directory to your wp-content\plugins directory, then activating the plugin. Â However, there is more involved to get it to work – you will need to configure it.
However, before configuring it, you will need to select the right version. Â The version currently published on the WordPress Plugin Directory (1.9.2) is for WordPress 2.6. Â Andre’s MailPress page has 1.9.3beta1 with some additional features (which I will be reviewing here) as well as 2.0 for WordPress 2.7. Â The primary reason for the difference is the change to the admin panel in WordPress 2.7. Â Andre is putting in a great deal of effort to make MailPress look like it belongs in WP 2.7.
Once you’ve installed the plugin, you will want to configure it.

Hi
I think Mailpress is probably one of the better mailing list plugins out there. There isn’t much choice unfortunately and to be honest, there isn’t one that I think is perfect.
I want to display a Mailpress subscription form on another page in wordpress – do you know how I can achieve this?
Thanks

Does anyone else have any experience with this?
