# ‘comments’ Statement Being Published.

 * Having sorted out my connection problem I’m now trying to iron out the creases
   and learn more about Postie.
 * The first issue is that the ‘comments’ line, although being acted on as anticipated,
   is being published in the body of the WordPress post.
 * The body of the email:
 *     ```
       #Test Simple Post (Title From Body)#

       A simple post to start getting postie stabilised and ready for rollout to a beta test user. When it's stable I'll set it up on the other site and roll it out to more copy creators. Uncertain, at this stage, whether:
       – they will be given a form which sends an email to me for validation, or
       – they will submit their copy direct to Postie to be published with draft status.
       That will be determined as I learn of the pitfalls of allowing direct submission.
       ```
   
 * The WordPress Post:
    [PostieComments](http://photobucket.com/gallery/user/DerekD1961/media/cGF0aDovUG9zdGllQ29tbWVudHNfenBzZTdkd2hsZHIucG5n/?ref=1)
 * Any pointers appreciated.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcomments-statement-being-published%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Not sure it was what was intended in the design of Postie, but it works. I can
   live with it so I’ve marked this issue resolved.
