Ok, is it the labeling or is it me? I am struggling with setting up remote publishing.

1. Where do I place the receiving email address?

2. Can posts be sent from more than one email address?

3. What's the difference between Sender White list and Map email to the user's email?

4. See the attached image.

So far I have tried several different options but can't get it to work. I can't find a clear explanation in documentation.
Hello,

1. You can place the email address in the username field. (example: test@mail.com)
2. Sorry, post only can be sent by one email address (specified in the username field) but multiple email accounts can send email to specified username to be posted to the blog.
3. Sender whitelist is to tell easyblog only fetch an email from this list. Only applicable if the field is not empty. If the field is empty, Easyblog will fetch any email from any account. Map email to the user's email is used to only fetch email if the email address is also belong to any blogger in the site.
4. Select a user is for the author of the blog post. Every email fetched from the inbox will be assigned this user as an author of the blog post. http://screencast.com/t/HrNd3IxoQtr

Hope this helps.

if I manually run http://dataforest.com.au/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron shouldn't it fetch new posts even if I don't have a cronjob setup?

Hello Bob,

Yes, that will run the cron task manually, please don't hesitate if you have any questions, you could also run it on page load.

Thanks:)

Thanks Khairul. Could you please have a look at attached files? Not sure why Remote posting doesn't work for me. I have 3 unread emails in that mailbox.
