Post blog entry using e-mail..

Post by seeker2921 »

I wrote a simple blog script that just ads the entry to a table in a MySQL database, What I want to do now is setit up to where I can add an entry to my blog just by sending an e-mail to one of my pop3 accounts.. The main purpose for this would be to use with my camera phone and send images that will update to the website.. I'm not sure on how to do this?? If my curent blog script needs to be posted let me know and I will post all the code.. Thanks for your help..

Have you tried using textamerica? Then that way, it would be easier to just grab content from the page instead of a pop3 account.

But if you insist: http://php.net/manual/en/ref.imap.php
