 * Hi,
 * my issue is that it runs smoothly but only if I run Postie from the Dashboard.
   It doesn’t publish automatically even if there are mail in the pipeline.
 * I’ve registered the mail address as user, allowed him to publish, everything 
   looks ok and in fact I believe settings are ok, as material is published correctly
   when I run Postie.
 * It is the timer function that doesn’t work. Has anybody experienced the same?

 * What version of WP are you using? I assume the “Check for mail every” setting
   is something other than “check manually”

 * I’m using WP 3.4.2. I’ve tried to set the “Check mail for every…” at different
   times but none is working. Only the manual check works.

 * Try installing the plugin “Cron View” and see if the postie event is registered.
   Look under the “Tools” menu after activating.

 * Yes, it is, with the same setting “twice a hour” as setted in the postie settings
   page.
 * I’m seriously lost

 * There is a bug 1.4.5 that doesn’t match the user sometimes, but I’m not sure 
   why it would work manually.
