Need help sorting out how to use 23? Or have you discovered one of those nasty bugs?

Upload by mail bug

muntsa   September 16, 2011, 03:19 PM

Hi all,

I sent some pictures to my upload e-mail adress some days ago, and it seems that there is a bug: In the e-mail I attached about 10 pictures, but only 3 got to my account, and what is worse, they have been being uploaded to my account for the last 5 days!! I mean that at this moment I have the first 5 pages on my "latest pictures" page with these three pictures repeated over an over. Weird, isn't it?

Yesterday I sent a couple of more pictures by e-mail to see if that changed something, but though these photos got correctly (and only once) to my account, the other pictures have appeared again and again today.

So, please, could somebody help me with that? I am starting to hate these three pictures ;)

Hi Muntsa,

Unfortunately, this is a problem which is usually caused by your mail relay server sending the message over and over again, most likely because it encounters an error somewhere due to the size of the message. I have been following our own mail logs for the past few days, but haven't been able to find posts to your email upload address in the queue -- is the problem still occurring?

If the problem is ongoing, you can at least stop it by changing your upload address under Options -> E-mail upload.

Thank you for your answer!
No, the problem is not occurring any more. I guess that finally the server got its timeout for delivering the e-mail... So problem solved!

Thank you very much!
