  I have had hundreds of people posting on my blog. Is there an easy way I can capture their email addresses?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Find the comment of the commenter, and click the edit button. It will show you the eMail of the commenter. Hope this helps

  There is no way to export them, so copy and paste by opening them in the editor is the only way.

  lackattack,

  Is this the blog your are asking about:
  http://lackattack.wordpress.com/
  It is most efficient and polite to provide a link to the blog/site you are asking about in these forums—we are mostly volunteers here who have no access to back-end/source information.

  Do you tell your commenters that you are using their email addys for some other purpose than contacting them privately for their comments on your blog?

  Note that in some countries, repurposing email addresses is illegal.

  That’s the first time I’ve ever heard of a cookbook for a fast. :)

  Maybe have an optional sign up for an email newsletter.
