New feature for sites that allow public submissions: Bulk delete unapproved posts

Did you know you can use Posterous to take public submissions? Austin-based newspaper The Austin American-Statesman is using posterous to accept photos from their readers on how to beat the heat. Peldi, the famed creator of Balsamiq Mockups, uses Posterous to power Mockups to Go, a user-contributed collection of ready-to-use UI elements.

We just added a much-needed new feature: Now you can one-click bulk delete all the unapproved posts on your site. Here's where you'll be able to find it, right off your Manage page.

Hat tip to @balsamiq for the feature request! Got one of your own? Email us.

How do we get readers to submit stuff? is there something we need to activate? or a new email address?

Appsfire Team -- go to your "edit site settings" page and under Contributors, select "Anyone can post, I will moderate" -- then anyone from then on can email you at post@yourblog.posterous.com and you'll be able to moderate it.

Great job, Posterous!

Garry, could this be made available to all sites, not just those that allow public submissions?

Garry, "theme my site"...looks like you may have removed that from the pic in the post? You can still see it when you click on the pic in the post. You can run, but...

I like the simplicity of the current posterous theme, but looking forward to see what you guys come up with.

Also, the advanced function of the posterous logo on hiphopo is cool.

Love it! Can you reject a post from email? By replying "reject" or something like that?
