  Two questions on my email notifications that are sent to followers:
  1) when I do a new post, my followers get a shortened version in the email that they then have to click through to read all of it, which I like. However, for my friend’s new blog I now can’t figure out how I did that and his emails are going out with the full text.
  2) when my readers get a new post, it comes from WordPress and says [New Post] in brackets in the subject line followed by the post title. I’ve seen other blogs have their blog name in the brackets – possible?
  Thank you!

  To change the settings for full-text versus a summary of your post, you’ll want to select the Summary option in your Settings -> Reading page:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/reading-settings/

  As for the subject line, you’ll want to make sure you have a site title filled out in your Settings -> General page.
