I'm updating my plugin for WordPress 2.5 and have found the add_meta_box feature. It looks like a great way to implement a feature I've been requested several times.

Basically my plugin (Subscribe2) sends notification emails when you make a new post on your blog. Using add_meta_box and I add a new Advance box to over-ride this sending on a per post basis but..

Which hook is the best for dealing with entering the data into the postmeta table?

My emails link to the transition hooks (like new_to_publish and draft_to_publish) so using edit_post, save_post and wp_insert_post may be too late in the process (if I'm reading the code right), but using transition_post_status doesn't help either because the user may have hit save once, then checked the box I've added and hit save again - this won't transition the post so won't call the function.

Is there a need for another hook or am I missing something obvious?

Thanks in advance,
Matt
