Wordpress had easy enough examples to guide me.
I just dragged the "Follow Blog" widget to one of the widget areas. When I write a new post, it sends an email to subscribers. That's on a blog hosted on wordpress.com A self-hosted Wordpress install doesn't have that by default, though it's probably available to install.
