email to followers only the beginning of a new post
-
Hello. I want my followers to receive by email only the first few lines of each new post – not the entire article. Is there somewhere in the settings where I can choose this option? Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
Also note what follows please. If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/The read more tag can be inserted once only into any post to change the front page or main page for posts display from full post to an excerpt. The split in the ext does not display to you in preview mode but it will be there after the post is published.
Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
