Mark Styles at 'Be Lambic or Green' has a nice tip for Wordpress 2.1 users that use the inbuilt WYSIWYG editor:

Posting to WordPress via Blackberry & Sony Ericsson 750i

I finally cracked the problem with wp-mail.php.

Posting via Blackberry or mobile phone did only show the subject (title), and not the message body, as it is base64 encoded.

Following the fixes by Michael Scott and David Morris (see previous post) I made some additions and amendments.

wp-mail.php

Posting via Blackberry

Have this annoying problem of having emtpy messages when they come through the Blackberry.

I think I know where the problem is: Blackberrys (or in combination with Exchange) seem to encode everything in Base64.

Will try and fix this.

There is a post from Michael Scott with a fix:

and David Morris' little tweak:

Wish me luck.

PS: Didn't work of course. Will try again later.
