    Hi all,

    I'm trying to post to my Wordpress blog via postie, and it seems to work fine when I have just text, but when I try to attach an image, or embed an image into the email, it doesn't work. I am sending an HTML formatted email, and I have my preferences in Postie to read emails as HTML. A post is created when I do this, with title "tmpTitle", and the only content in it is the text "tmpPost", but the post remains unpublished.

    The message I get when running Postie manually is as follows:

    This is the postie plugin

    I looked at this file, and lines 323-324 are:

    if ( ! $link )
                $link = home_url( "/?attachment_id=$id" );

    Can anyone tell me what they think the issue might be, or how to solve it? Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: I'm using Wordpress 3.01 and Postie 1.4.1

    Has anyone seen an error like this? I have done searching here and on the Wordpress forums and can't seem to figure out why this is happening. Any insights would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    could you send me a test message which can produce this error? Please send it to robfelty at the gmail, and make sure to include 'postie' in the subject. Please send an original message, not a forward.

    I have tried dev version & much more. Has there been anyone else report this problem? I am having the same issue. (.jpeg)(.gif) cause the same error as described above. It worked in the past so i tried rolling back to older versions with no luck.

    Wordpress Version 3.0.1
    Postie Version 1.4.1

    I also ran the below script to test if GD was working correct & it is. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    <?php

    function HasGDInstalled($display = true) {
    $function_list = array("getimagesize",
    "imagecreatefromjpeg",
    "imagecreatefromgif",
    "imagecreatefrompng",
    "imagecreatetruecolor",
    "imagecreatetruecolor",
    "imagecopyresized",
    "imagejpeg",
    "imagedestroy");
    return(HasFunctions($function_list,$display));
    }

    /**
    * Handles verifing that a list of functions exists
    * @return boolean
    * @param array
    */
    function HasFunctions($function_list,$display = true) {
    foreach ($function_list as $function) {
    if (!function_exists($function)) {
    /*
    if ($display) {
    print("<p>Missing $function");
    }
    */
    return(false);
    }
    }
    return(true);

    }

    echo HasGDInstalled();
    ?>

    A little more information, it appears the issue is with the email I'm sending. I tried setting up a "quick" upload via my Android Phone and that seems to be where the problem is at.

    I sent an email via the normal email function of my phone and it worked flawlessly. I'm going to look further into it and see what the deal is and if I figure it out I will post again.

    Ok one more post. Here is the source from the email that gets the error. It looks like the problem is with the way the image is being attached, it's not actually attached with a file extension. (I just left the important stuff).
