 * Hi, ive enabled it so that I can post to my blog via email, however when I send
   an email to create a post the email has some unwanted text at the bottom that
   the email provider has added.
 * Is there a way to hide this text automatically when posted to my blog? Btw, it
   is the same text all the time.
 * Thank you

 * is it wrapped in anything when you view the source?
 * You could use display:none in css to hide it, but it depends what it looks like
   in your source code

 * try to add a filter:
 *     ```
       add_filter('the_content','strip_email_provider_text');
       function strip_email_provider_text($output) {
       $output = str_replace('<p>the email provider added text</p>','',$output);
       return $output;
       }
       ```
   
 * add this to functions.php of your theme; maybe try without the `<p>` tags, if
   above does not work.
