In reply to: [Post By Email] category shortcodesIt should still pick up attachments unless the iPhone is doing something weird.
Can you please forward some test messages to postbyemailplugin@gmail.com so I can investigate? One from Gmail and maybe a couple from your phone would be very helpful.
Thanks 🙂

In reply to: [Post By Email] Something about substrThanks for reporting this. I’ve been trying to track it down. Do you know what version of PHP you have?

In reply to: [Post By Email] category shortcodesHi! No one else has reported an issue with the category shortcodes. What email client are you using? Does it work if you switch your email into “plain text” mode?

In reply to: [Post By Email] "Must wait 5 minutes"What was the error that showed up at the top of the page? (The blank page is simply how WP “handles” the error when WP_DEBUG is turned off.)

In reply to: [Post By Email] Image not being loadedThanks – I’m trying to fix this for the next version, which I’m currently working on. Does it work from Apple Mail if you just attach the images to the email, instead of embedding them? Or does it not work either way?

In reply to: [Post By Email] Set all posts as PendingHi!
There’s a feature on the list for the next version that would allow you to set all incoming messages as drafts, regardless of whether the author has posting rights. Would that solve your problem, or do you need more detailed access controls? If you need something more complex, what would that look like?

In reply to: [Post By Email] ScheduleWait, so even after you “Check Now”, it still says “Never”?

In reply to: [Post By Email] Use of pinOh, good! However, that’s a bug — you shouldn’t *have* to use plain text to use PIN authentication. What mail client are you using? Can you do me a favor and forward a NON plain text email to postbyemailplugin@gmail.com so I can take a look?

In reply to: [Post By Email] Fatal Error using Check NowAlright. Well, the next version of the plugin will do a better job of catching some of the weirdness around PHP 5.2. I’ll update this thread when version 1.1 is live, so you can test it out if you haven’t changed hosts yet.

In reply to: [Post By Email] Use of pinHi Tony,
You should be able to put the PIN anywhere in the email. Have you double-checked that you’re really using the same PIN as in the settings? (If you want to use “12345”, you do need to put that into the text box, not just check the box.)
Are you using something unusual as a PIN (long, special characters, etc.)?
Can you try sending the email as plain-text and see if that fixes the issue?

In reply to: [Post By Email] ScheduleYeah, that’s odd. It should check every hour. Note that, due to how WP scheduling works, it will only run if someone views a page on your WP site (so in other words, it won’t run every hour on the hour, it will run if WordPress gets loaded AND it has been an hour or longer since the last check). Anyhow, if you load up the main blog page and then reload the Post By Email admin page, does it then show that the check happened?
If not, can you install the Cron View plugin and see if the event is getting scheduled? http://wordpress.org/plugins/cron-view/ That just adds a menu option in the admin dashboard that lets you view scheduled events.

In reply to: [Post By Email] Error 404 When CheckI’m looking into it. The issues with PHP 5.2 are myriad; I’m rewriting some things pretty significantly for the next release, which will hopefully make it less of an issue, but that won’t be done for a few weeks at the earliest.
Is there any chance you can update to PHP 5.3? That’s the easiest solution right now.
The reason I mentioned the ports for POP3+SSL is that “Error connecting to the mail server” message means something was misconfigured. When you enable SSL, you do need to make sure to change the port number (mail servers use different ports for secure vs. insecure connections).
Also, the following info would help me track down the problem–
WordPress version (e.g. 3.6, 3.7)
Post By Email version (hopefully 1.0.4b right now)
Mail server (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo, hosted (which host?), self-hosted (what software))Thanks.

In reply to: [Post By Email] Fatal Error using Check NowHmmmmmm. Well, I think I know what’s happening, but I don’t know *why* it’s happening. (It sounds like it is trying to retrieve message headers for a message that no longer exists… but where it’s coming up with a nonexistent message ID is a really good question.)
Does your mail server support IMAP? POP3, as the older and less reliable mail protocol, can cause problems in some configurations. I’m curious if this error would happen on IMAP, too — maybe you can switch to that and try it?
Come to think of it, what mail host / mail server software are you using? I wonder if it’s providing the message UUID in a different format or something.
As far as your system logs are concerned, probably won’t be anything useful in there, but what I can do is add a check in the code to catch that error and spit out some more information about it. Are you comfortable installing a beta version of the plugin from a tarfile?

In reply to: [Post By Email] Fatal Error using Check NowHmm, that doesn’t sound good. :/ Can you tell me more about your configuration? IMAP or POP3? SSL or not? Were there any emails to be fetched at the time, or was it checking an empty inbox?
You said this happened when checking mail manually; does it work on an automatic check? Does it happen every time you check mail, or did it just happen once?
Thanks!
