Big big thanks to Dirk over at Economy Size Geek. E-mails with picture attachments sent from my Nokia on the Vodafone Ireland network to this blog were not working with his plug-in. He says that the format from Vodafone is crazy. But he got it working! He is an absolute star for putting all of that effort in to get his code working for one user. Now I just need to get a phone that can take decent pictures…

Just a quick test of the Live Comment Preview Plugin. Excellent, looks like it works fine.

so what modifications did you have to make to postie. there aren’t really any notes about it on the economy size geek site.

No mods, just installed the latest version and configured it on the config page and it worked like a charm!
Just got a Nokia N70 today so will be testing that later.

i’m using 0.9.9.3.2 downloaded today – and it doesn’t seem to work.
i’ve added my phones’ address as an author and added the vodafone images to the banned list.
but it doens’t work.
the n series are quite nice. getting a v3 and qtek9090 tomorrow hopefully. also a Sony Ericson k750i i believe. all for work though…

What happens when you manually do a “run postie” in the config screen? Does it report errors about the messages you have sent? If it does, then let Dirk at Economy Size Geek know – he is really proactive in fixing problems.

run postie works fine. i’ve managed to strip out the excess images automatically now. postie wanted them defined as images/vf9.gif etc rather than vf9.gif.
got to try to work out how to ignore the subject line that vodafone adds now and use the text from the body of the mail.

Hi
I’m having some issues with Postie and Virgin Mobile. trying to send an MMS to my secure e-mail address.
Under post “Who knows how easy this” on June 16th.
The title, and body are present, but the images (of which I attached two) are shown as grey boxes only. Max limit for MMS is 100kb, so I then only attached 1 image of 22kb and sent another one, see post “Calls me me”. Same problem.
Do you know what is going on here?

Hey Jimbo, I’m afraid I haven’t used Postie in a long time so I’m no help to you. Have you checked out the newer versions at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/postie/ ?
