Thanks for them much for developing this plug-in... we are using it on our whale watching blog to showcase images from the daily trips.

I'm using this on a website for users to submit their testimonial to the admin. Basically I'm using contact form 7 to generate the content with the proper code which is emailed to a secret email address... subsequently Postie grabs that email and parses it automatically for me, places it as a draft, and emails the admin there's a new drafted testimonial.
Works really well-- main issue was WP-mail wasn't letting me push the new email as a draft, but postie lets you do basically everything under the sun!
Fantastic plugin!

If I was stuck on an island and could only keep 3 WordPress plugins (yes this island happens to have wifi, LOL), Postie would be one of them.

Works and great support. Was able to setup but had an issue getting it to work. I sent a help email to author and got prompt response. He explained how it worked and got me to understand it was my problem with the setup.
I needed to send items via email and Postie has met all my expectations. It is also frequently updated.

Postie works just fine. I installed it for posting while being on road. Though it seems to be a powerful tool, installation is easy and self explaining. It took me just a few minutes to adjust the settings according to my needs.

An excellent tool, if you spend a bit of time to understand how it works. Wayne the developer is there to help if you are stuck, though most questions are already answered in the support forums.

This is exactly what I wanted. Choosing post types, categories, and tags are great.
This solution is perfect since my client - is never on a desktop but is always on his smart phone - even while on the boat. He needed an easy way to post the whale sightings of the day. I tried setting him up with the mobile version of wordpress to make posts but he got very frustrated. Looks like having him simply email from his phone instead will work great - Thanks for building it.!

I was looking for a plugin that takes an e-Mail, writes a post and sets the first image as featured image for that new Post.
with POSTIE it worked perfectly in 2 minutes.
Postie is not just the best-supported WordPress plugin I've used, but is unquestionably the best-supported piece of software I have ever encountered. Thank you for your awesome responsiveness!

The best wordpress plugin for posting by mail. Gives lot of options to choose from.
It even gives option to check mail connection and to post mail manually from the admin panel.

Postie and the Postie Shortcode Add-On did not work perfectly with my custom post type right out of the box. However, this plugin has great support and the developer went out of his way to help me get it working the way I wanted it to.

perfect! ... many settings for customizing. Works fine, setup needs some testing of the parameters, but even with included debug-feature it's easy 🙂
It becomes better from version to version

IMHO, while travelling, I believe, Postie is the best option for WordPress blog so far. WordPress apps on any mobile platform do not work well, plus emails work best on bad connections which is always the case.

Features
Postie offers many advanced features for posting to your site by email which are a big improvement over the built in Post by Email functionality.
