WordPress MU

I've inatalled the postie plugin on my wpmu but can't find instructions on how to use it to email blog posts. i've looked in the authors website but there are no instructions.

I mean HOW DO you email a blog post using postie or another email plugin?

Is postie the one i should have installed or is ther a more compatable email blog script?

thanks for help

Anyone managed to get Blogging using email to mu wordpress?

I don't believe anyone has achieved email posting yet.

And one year later ? does any one manage to achieve email posting for wordpress MU ? because i'm using it for mu own blog and it so great i'd like to install it for my users ;)

Actually I've folks doing this for months now. It's the same as regular wordpress.

- Create the email account within your site's backend.

- Edit the blog under Dashboard -> Site Admin -> Blog -> Edit the blog and fill out the Mailserver fields (url, login, pass, and port)

- Set up a server side cron job to hit http://username.wpmu.tld/wp-mail.php every so often.

Works for us. You have to set it up to run the mail file though for the specific subdomain though for it to work.

ok, dumb question... I can't figure out how to setup a the cron job you mentioned. Where do I even start that?

google: "creating a cron job"
