Assigning categories to email addresses?

You can build a Postie addon to enforce this rule. See https://postieplugin.com/extending/

Excellent, thank you

I know you are busy so I will be brief

I have a blog that based on the email of the person that sents the email, a category gets assigned for the post…

This is the code I am using for postieFilter.php, and checks if the email is such, then it assigns two post categories… however when debugging, categories are blank and nothing ends up being posted even though a post id was assigned, I suspect I am assigning the categories wrongly? This is my code:

function change_email($email) {
if (stristr($email, ‘admin@al***********.com’)){
$post[‘post_category’]=array(4,37);
return ($post);}
}

Never mind.. this helped me fix it, now it is working =)

The variable $post isn’t defined in your function so any changes you make to it are lost. I assume you are calling this from another function and should pass in $post as well.
