Adding addresses to email shortcuts

You post articles and photos via email by sending email to the email shortcut address specified in your blog. The content of the email gets turned into a blog entry.

There are two types of email addresses that can be added or edited for email shortcuts:

·

the email address for the authorized recipient of postings received via email

·

the email address or addresses for valid senders of postings to the authorized recipient

The email you specified for yourself when you first set up your blog account is the default for both types of email addresses. You can change the default email address or add additional ones.

To add or change the email shortcut addresses

1.

On your Publisher Control Panel, click the Settings and Security tab, then select Moblogging on the Publishing Defaults page. The Moblogging page opens:

There are two default email shortcut categories - Main and Photo. Main shortcuts are used to handle text-based blogs (articles, reviews, etc.), while Photo shortcuts handle blogs that contain photos. You can add additional article or photo shortcuts by following the procedures in Adding article or photo email shortcuts.

2.

Click either the Main or Photo link to open the Email Shortcut Settings page:

3.

In the Select one or more categories for your post box, select a category (for example Main Page) for the blog entry. If you select more than one category, press the CTRL key on your keyboard as you select each category.

4.

To change the authorized recipient email addresses, in the Send a notification to the following addresses box, change the default email address or add additional email addresses, one address per each line.

5.

To change the valid senders email addresses, in the Valid Sender Email Addresses box, change the default email address or add additional email addresses, one address per line. You can add up to 20 valid recipient addresses.

Note: If you are receiving and sending posts from a mobile device, make sure to program your mobile device to receive email shortcut blog postings, and enter the mobile device's email address in the Valid Sender Email Addresses box.

6.

In the Options area, make sure that the Require Email Confirmation check box is cleared. This way you can receive email postings immediately.

Select other options as required. See Setting moblogging options for details on completing this section.

8.

Click the Save Settings button. You are returned to the Moblogging page.
