This is a request for future development - Not really sure how easy this would be.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have just started using mailbox posting for our contributors. This is designed for simple quick posts where they just want to include some text and maybe an image (Everything works well:)
The only thing we would like is for our contributors to be able to select a category. We have set the Default category, so all the mailbox posting posts go into this category. However we have a number of other categories which these contributors post in.
It would be nice if they could specify the category in the subject line of the email. Currently we have
SUBJECT: [news] ...this identifies it as post ....then the title of the post ie My Latest Post
so it would be great if we could have
SUBJECT: [news] [category name] ...This would be the category in which to post the post .... then the title

I hope this makes sense???
Kind regards
David
Thanks for your suggestion, but unfortunately it is not possible to achieve this yet in EasyBlog.

Perhaps I can help you move this post to under Easyblog - feature request section so we will prioritize this feature during the development process for the next major version of Easyblog if there are more people request on this.

Hi Alex,
Not quite sure how to move this post under EasyBlog?
Do I have to re-enter under Easy Blog?

Hello,

We'd like to have this category selection feature for mailbox posting, too.

Wouldn't it be helpful if we can specify email address per category?
Such as...
event@xxxx.com for 'Event' category
diary@xxxx.com for 'Diary' category
etc.

Hope this feature would be implemented in near future.

Thanks,
rikao
