    Hello,

    I am working on a blog that I would like to add "Email this post / page" functionality. I recently installed "WP-EMail", but ran into some problems. Can anyone suggest an alternative.

    Regards,
    Rich

    Try ShareThis, and what problem you ran into?

    Thank you,

    Share This has everything in one spot. The problem I ran into with WP-EMail is, when attempting to edit the options, when I hit submit, the values are never passed, and the page shows blank. So none of the changes I set are ever stored in the db.

    Regards,
    Richard

    Richard -- I have wp-mail working fine on several blogs. I can probably help if you're still pursuing that path. The setup is a little finicky, but once in place, it works like a charm.

    motivatebusiness: You may need to check your error_log to see what causes the blank page as the plugin itself will never cause a blank page.

    I have no problem to use WP-EMAIL but I want to attach images in my email and WP-EMAIL doesn't support attachments.

    It must be any plugin which support attachment ...or isn't it?

    I forgot to mention that I tested PostMaster (http://blog.xforward.com/?page_id=65) but it's not working with WP2.7.

    I'm doing the equivalent successfully be mailing out of a web form which uploads the image to the right folder and then I just create the necessary source in the email message. Of course, I'm on the same server, so that may not be an easy option for you
