Newsmail was created to allow easy news publication to one or more sites, using email messages to insert, delete, and manage news.

It is a simple PHP news ticker that allows you to publish news via email. Newsmail can generate RSS feeds for news matching a given category.

Here are some key features of "Newsmail":
import plain text or HTML email messages with or without attachments, and with or without Markdown syntax.
store messages in database (currently Postgresql and MySQL are supported, but the PHP code uses Pear::DB abstraction) and attachments in filesystem.
request a confirmation message before publishing or deleting news.
require an approvation from a moderator before publishing or deleting news.
answer to some administration commands directly via email (e.g. news listing, news delete and update).
generate an RSS feed with news matching a particular category or with category equal to 'all'

What's New in This Release:
A small improvement was made to the install instructions.
An approval option was added, which requires BCC_ADDRESS approval for inserting and deleting messages.
The approval process uses a randomly generated token password to improve security.
The database structure was changed to use a token for approval security.
The MySQL table definition was improved to use INNODB.
