   i want use "Post by Email" feature,but have some problems,my blog can't reveive email!
   at first i use phpmailer,and here is the code:

   require_once('./class-phpmailer.php');
   $mail = new PHPMailer(true); // the true param means it will throw exceptions on errors, which we need to catch
   $mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP

   try {
   $mail->Host = "pop.gmail.com"; // SMTP server
   $mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // enables SMTP debug information (for testing)
   $mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
   $mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl"; // sets the prefix to the servier
   $mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
   $mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
   $mail->Username = "[email redacted]"; // GMAIL username
   $mail->Password = "mypwd"; // GMAIL password

   // $mail->AddAddress("[email redacted]","justanimal");
   //$mail->AddBCC("[email redacted]","justanimal");
   $mail->AddAddress("[email redacted]","xiehua");
   //$mail->AddAddress("[email redacted]","xiehua");
   $mail->SetFrom('[email redacted]',"xiehua");
   $mail->AddReplyTo('[email redacted]', 'xiehua');
   $mail->Subject = 'hello';
   $mail->MsgHTML("[title hello] [tags hello,animals] helloworld");
   $mail->Send();
   echo "Message Sent OK</p>\n";
   } catch (phpmailerException $e) {
   echo $e->errorMessage(); //Pretty error messages from PHPMailer
   } catch (Exception $e) {
   echo $e->getMessage(); //Boring error messages from anything else!
   }

   i try

   $headers .= "Date: ". date("D, j M Y H:i:s")."\n"; //date;
   $headers .= "From: <[email redacted]>\n"; // your mail
   $headers .= "To: \"blog\" <[email redacted]>\n"; // mail to post
   $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF8; format=flowed \n" ;

   $headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n";
   $param = "-f <[email redacted]>"; // your mail

   We filter out these sort of requests as they can easily be abused by spammers.

   The emails must come from an actually email or webmail client.
