email posting test

Well I’m now up and running on wordpress, and have set up the modified wp-mail.php email posting hack (http://blade.lansmash.com/?p=156#comments and http://www.economysizegeek.com/?cat=13), so I have every thing blogger gave me but faster. I even got all the old posts transferred over without much hassle. The only fixes I’d like with wp-mail.php are with the conversion of URLs to links and emailing images but these should be fixable faster then waiting on blogger to sort things out, so it looks like it may be bye bye to Hello (http://www.hello.com) as I can post with greater flexibility by email.
