Wordpress - Posting By Email
July 21st, 2008 — SniperBesides the regular style of posting, WordPress also supports different ways of doing this job. For example, you can make posts by mailing to a specific account. This is possible if you set up an email account and make it available to WordPress. For posting by email, let us follow these steps.
Click on the Options menu and then Writing from the sub-menu.
At the bottom of this page, there is a section titled Writing by e-mail. You have to configure some settings before you can start posting by email.
You need to fill in your mail server name, Login name (usually, that is your full email address), and the Password. Finally, select the category to which these posts should go. To use, you have to send an email to the email account you have set up.
After sending an email to this address, access the following URL http://ur blog address/wp-mail.php using your browser. Then WordPress will connect to this email address, fetch the email, and then post it automatically.
