How do you autopublish posts by email without approving them?

I need to get all my spam autoposting on my site http://www.sendspamemail.com

Anyone who can answer this ‘truely’ deserves to have a site called wordpress expert!

Thanks!

Tim.

Strange, it should be working, as far as I know. Hopefully it was a one-time issue with the message being caught in a spam filter along the way.

Thanks for letting me know.

@John: I was on blogger/blogspot at that time but yeah I think I remember from some conversations with friends that at that time, one had to press save instead of publish.
btw, is ur notification for comments via email working? because I didn’t get any mail for your reply..

Right, I found out recently that you can just click “Publish” instead of selecting “Published” from “Post Status” and then “Save.”

I must’ve been thinking about a ye olde WordPress version (yeah, my WP usage dates back to the 1.5 era), because if I remember correctly, it used to be that clicking “Publish” meant “Publish Now.”

I’ve updated the post — thanks.

John, infact you have to press “publish”, otherwise the post will not be scheduled for publishing. I wrote an article for the same as well at http://tech.shantanugoel.com/2008/02/26/tip-wordpress-posts-scheduling-back-to-the-future-or-blast-from-the-past.html
