Email Bridge: post articles and blogs with pictures via email.

There it is. We’ve released our email bridge feature today. You can now send emails with picture attachments to your website, and post them directly to the blog or directly to the article category of your choice. It’s very simple, and here we will answer a few common questions:

Is it secure?

Yes. You must have an account on the website CMS and you must be assigned a PIN number.

How long does it take?

It’s quasi instantaneous, and won’t take more than 30 seconds. It all depends on the server load.

What makes the title and what makes the body of the blog or the article?

The subject of your email will be the title (or headline )of your blog or article.
The body of your email will be the body of the blog or article.
It’s that simple

Can I post an article to a specific category?

Yes, of course. The category internal name will be part of the email address.

Can my emails contains html formatting?

Of course. We wouldn’t deliver a feature = without it

How many pictures can I attach to my email?

As many as you want. But, there is always a limit to the amount of data you can post to your server in one round-trip, the default is usually 2MB (for all pictures combined) although we often lift this up to 100MB (which is plenty). It all depends on your hosting company, so make sure you know that total upload limit or you will see your article but you won’t get pictures attached.

What type of pictures can I send?

You can send anything that’s a JPEG, a GIF, a PNG and even a BMP .

Will the pictures be formatted = properly?

Yes. First, we resize all uploaded pictures to the CMS standard 600x600, or to the value you have configured in your Website->Global Settings section. Then, the pictures will be automatically formatted by the website according to how your templates are setup. In effect, there is nothing you need to do. You mind as well send raw pictures, that’s why we designed it this way.

Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us  if you would like to inquire about the availability of this feature.

Stay tuned for more great features for February
