MXSW daily email subscribers will see a new & improved design today

If you’re one of the thousands of Mouth by Southwest readers who subscribe to the daily email roundup of new posts, you’ll see a new and improved email design today.

I think the new design (shown above) is cleaner and easier to read than the five-year-old design.

More importantly, the new email service is more reliable than the old service, which increasingly was delivering emails late or not at all to some subscribers.

The daily emails should arrive in your mailbox just after 11 a.m. every day and contain all new posts since the previous day’s email. (You won’t receive an email on days I don’t post, like most Sundays.)

Keep in mind, the emails may look similar to the MXSW website, but they won’t have the informational links, navigation tools, banner ads, search forms, and other features. Just a MXSW logo and the stories.

(Some people with extra-wide email windows have wondered if something is missing because the emails have blank space on the sides. This is normal on wide windows.)

I’ve tested the new emails for a couple days and they seem to work great so – fingers crossed – they’re going live today for all daily subscribers.
