Asking to recommend a product (plugin, theme, book, hosting provider), tool, library, or off-site resource is out of scope for this site, as it attracts opinionated answers and spam. Instead, describe the problem and what has been done so far to solve it.

Reset to default 1As far as deleting users from an email, I've never heard of that.
You can however publish posts via WP's built in Post By Email feature.
Go to your admin > Settings > Writing and fill out the required mail server settings and login fields.
To post to WordPress by email you must set up a secret email account with POP3 access. Any mail received at this address will be posted, so it’s a good idea to keep this address very secret.
However, this lacks many of the common features of posting from the admin. You can use a plugin that extends this functionality.
