I downloaded the Post Office plugin after installing the release candidate 2 of MT4.2 and am disappointed that it doesn't seem to work. I can send an email and it ends up in my Gmail inbox, but how it gets posted to my blog is a mystery.
I've had 2 goes at trying to send a post via email and I'm stumped. I've got the link at the bottom of the entry screen (strange place to have it, by the way, why would I want a link there when I'm already in the create entry interface?)
So far there seems to be little in the way of babble about this plugin, perhaps users are disappointed like me. Or nobody has used it yet? I find that hard to believe. If somebody has this working, perhaps you could enlighten me? I'm lost.
I can imagine a few other problems with this plugin too. Category? Tags? I can see it might be useful if you're on the go and you want to post a draft entry. I've set the default to draft now thinking that I'll want to edit it before it goes live anyway. That's if I ever get it working. Perhaps I'm supposed to set up a cron job to check my Google mail for posts. I don't know.
