No, this cannot be done. 

 

Actually, it can be done and I have done it.
Trick is, you need somewhere an service which polls e-mail. In my case I have an Azure web job and an outlook e-mail box.
Service accepts plain text e-mails and also posts with Word attachments which can then include pretty much everything, including pictures, tables etc.
This service takes e-mail in, converts it into html and posts it to blog through same interface that also Windows Live Writer is using.
I use this pretty often when I'm On The Road and also when I don't want to open Windows image on my Mac to post blog posts.

Thank you everyone for your excellent answers.

Seeing the original question, I thought I may have stumbled across a simple way for our support technicians out in the field to post outages “via email” to our (DNN) Intranet without adding extra work on them (or making them into editors).
