I had two emails in there on separate lines that were both successful posting remotely to my blog. When I upgraded Postie a couple days ago, I suddenly found that the first email was being rejected as not authorized to post. When I switched the order, with the second email first and vice versa, the second email was now coming back as unauthorized but the first was accepted as authorized again. When I put the first line email address repeated on the third line, both were authorized. What's working for me now is:</p> <p><a href="mailto:email1@domain.com">email1@domain.com</a><br /> <a href="mailto:email2@domain.com">email2@domain.com</a><br /> <a href="mailto:email1@domain.com">email1@domain.com</a></p> <p>Seems like it might be ignoring the first line??</p> <p>I am using Wordpress 2.9.2 and Postie 1.4. </p> http://forum.robfelty.com/topic/fsockopen-call-not-error-checked#post-3516 Thu, 29 Jul 2010 18:03:52 +0000 elysian 3516@http://forum.robfelty.com/ <p>Hi guys,</p> <p>Just thought I would drop in with a bug report</p> <p>cronless postie was writing a 100 meg a day to the error log with errors like:<br /> fgets(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/redacted/public_html/wp-content/plugins/postie/cronless_postie.php on line 30</p> <p>When I looked at the code on the reported line, I see<br /> <code>$fp=fsockopen($host,$port,$errno,$errstr);</code><br /> followed immediately by<br /> <code>fputs($fp,&quot;GET $url HTTP/1.0\r\n&quot;);</code><br /> When the file failed to open, $fp was false, and the following fputs failed</p> <p>I fixed this by wrapping all the code using $fp after the fsockopen call with a conditional testing <code>false !== $fp</code><br /> but you might want to update the master.</p> <p>hope it helps</p> <p>Lea </p> http://forum.robfelty.com/topic/cant-connect-pop3-110#post-3494 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 19:36:08 +0000 stevennn 3494@http://forum.robfelty.com/ <p>I simply cannot connect to the server.</p> <p>If I "Run Postie" I get:<br /> The Server Said POP3 connect: Error [110] [Connection timed out] </p> <p>Same problem when I "Test Config"</p> <p>I use the same settings in Outlook and it works.

Therefore, the automatic twittering of the post doesn't occur. However, when I manually publish on the site, the Twitter Goodies plugin does correctly recognize the new post and tweet it.

Without this custom field, the image gets put into the wrong column and the thumbnail isn't generated.</p> <p>Basically, when I do this manually from the wordpress control panel, I don't even attach the image. I just make a custom field named "image." I then make a link to the image I wasnt to display and put it in that custom field. Then the thumbnail is generated properly and the image goes in the right loction.</p> <p>I am really hoping that this is possible with postie. I have spent a lot getting everything up and running and fine tuned. this is the last hurdle I am facing.</p> <p>I am at a loss as to how I can remedy this situation.
