Ok, so it would be best to make he page available at https://www.snapup.net and have a redirect from https://www.snapup.net/blog/ to the main page.

Is it true, that a short URL, ex. Permalink without …/blog/archives/… will work better with Google?

So there nothing wrong with my wordpress setup, its more a pagerank problem?

Nice to ask and having already the first answers within hours ??
You’re right, you should maybe take a look at the “problem”:

My Website is at https://www.snapup.net.

You will be redirected to https://www.snapup.net/blog/

If you google for a certain posting, like the newest one:

https://www.google.com/search?q=Howto%20backup%20your%20WordPress-Blog%20and%20MySQL-data%20with%20AppleScript%20on%20MacOS%20X

You’ll see that Google points to the main page. I’ve the Sitemap-Plugin installed.

Hi Scorpiotaz,

really annoying problem, right?
Dedge was so kind and spent some time to check my blog, my settings and my mail-accounts and came to the solution that it’s not a wordpress problem but something that’s wrong with your provider who hosts your blog.

I’ve asked my provider to check the configuration and remove all barriers so that blog-by-mail is working. As soon as I got an answer I’ll send you more information.

Be strong – blog-by-mail can be done.

Dedge,

I download the postie-plugin, and tried all (!) of my different EMail-Accounts, POP3, IMAP, SSL … nothing worked.
I got these error-messages:

Missing imagecreatefromgif Connecting to pop3.web.de:110 (pop3)) Mail Connection Time Out Common Reasons: Server Down Network Issue Port/Protocol MisMatch Ooops POP3 connect: Error [110] [Connection timed out]

For errortracking, it would be nice if someone, who has a working blog-by-mail setup, would try to access my emailservers. I would send login/password in a privat email.

Thanks for the answer – I see light at the end of the tunnel ??
If you can Blog-by-Mail than it can be possible.

I’m using a normal POP3 account (gmx.de) without SSL. I can easily check it with Apple’s Mail and regular settings for a POP3 Server.

Do you know any provider who provides free mail accounts that will work with wordpress?

I’m sending my email from my iBook, not from the phone – anyway, since WordPress is not able to connect to the Mailserver, I guess its a WordPress-Problem.

I really need this feature …

Thanks, I’ll take a look at the flickr-Plugin.

But my intention was also to write text on my mobile and post that to wordpress using the Blog-by-Mail function.
