Blogger by e-mail

Blogger has this functionality that allows you to send an e-mail and have it posted to your blog automatically. Generally a really useful feature, but as I found out this evening, the feature works a bit too well sometimes. My e-mail server on my blackberry automatically appends a disclaimer to the bottom of my mail about the information being "confidential and proprietary". Obviously not for stuff that I send to my blog, I want the public to see it. There's a tag that you can put in the e-mail to tell it that it is the of the post, but I forgot to do it earlier this evening. I immediately realized it, and resent the edited e-mail, assuming that an e-mail with the same subject would replace the previous one. Apparently not, and I now have two posts with exactly the same content, minus the disclaimer on one of them. I'll delete the extraneous post when I get home.

That's all that I have to rant about for now :-)
