I am already doing something very similar to this --you can create a webpage that is updated via email. In fact, you can put various columns in the page that can be updated by different people, using a specific email address. Might be just right for a pastor's column, youth column, mission's column, etc. The people can update their own column by just sending an email!

Pretty cool, but I am wondering if you have access to the internet (email), then why not just update the old fashioned way (ftp, etc.)?

I am talking about letting the pastor have a column that he or she can update anytime the want by simply sending an email. There are a lot of people providing content to webpages that a webmaster might not want to give complete access to the site, or people who want to update their articles without waiting on a webmaster to do it for them.

Gotcha!! I didn't think of it from that point of view. I was thinking of it as if the webmaster were wanting to update his/her own site via email.
