# wp-mail hack and post2cat table error

 * I’ve been customizing the wp-mail file to suit messages from my cell phone. I’ve
   had this problem on my production blog, but not on my test blog. At the moment
   it seems to be database related and not php.
    When I run the file on my production
   blog it hangs for a while then finally completes. I check the main page and everything
   shows but the category. Thats where I get the error and it tells me to check 
   the file template-functions-category.php line 65. That error is caused by the
   script not putting a new entry into the post2cat page. I’ve even used a stock
   wp-mail.php file on my production blog and my test blog and it works on the test
   blog but not the production blog. My modified script also works flawlessly on
   my test blog. I thought I had it working perfect until I tried it on my production
   blog and got the error. All the settings for the table seem correct in my production
   database when compared to the ones in the test database. I’ve been working on
   it all afternoon and now I’m at a dead end. It just seems like its lagging when
   doing the query on my production database, but I don’t know why. Any suggestions?
   Thanks

 * I figured it out. It was the script trying to ping other sites to tell them when
   I posted. It caused it to time out and not finish. Anyway, I commented it out
   and here I’ve published my plugin. You can follow it [here](http://wordpress.org/support/10/17377)
