How to Posting Blog From Email to WordPress

This item was filled under [ Wordpress ]

Is it possible to posting blog from email to wordpress? and email the post from our mobile? the answer is yes..i’ve been trying to make it by trial and error. But, i finally can manage to post from my blackberry through email.
Here’s the tutorial on how to post blog from email to wordpress:

- Follow this official tutorial: http://codex.wordpress.org/Blog_by_Email
- You can use gmail for your email, this is info for gmail account POP3:
MAIL SERVER: ssl://pop.gmail.com
PORT:
995
dont forget to enable your gmail pop3 account through its setting
- The installing is done but yours doesn’t seems to work? use the wp-mail.php plugin from this blog

And that should work…but if you sending email from Blackberry to wordpress, you will see strange characters appear in your blog posting. How do you fix this?
I found from someone on how to fix this strange characters stuff.

in wp-mail.php, under the lines:

if (stripos($content_transfer_encoding, "quoted-printable") !== false) {
$content = quoted_printable_decode($content);
}

i put:

if (strcmp($content_transfer_encoding, 'base64')==0){
$content = base64_decode($content);
}

And voila! that should decode the content that you wrote. Happy blogging from everywhere you are through email.

    If you own a Blackbeerry, you can add an application called mosnaps to your blackberry. It will allow you to send text and pictures to your WordPress blog. It is a pretty simple application and I can send my pix or text in 2 clicks. Mosnaps saves me a lot of time in clicks alone. Give it a try at Mosnaps.com.

    Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping.
    I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it.
    God will appreciate it.
