WordPress email post 1
This is a Outlook e-mail post to WordPress.
Quite nifty for basic posts but wondering if there is a way to set the Category which defaults to Uncategorized so I did a Google and found this.

Back to WordPress
Four years ago I decided to switch from WordPress to Google Blogger to cut costs so there was more budget $$$ to pay for several streaming services.
Although ancient I was happy with Blogger until I discovered my blog was not being indexed due to older templates, particularly those from the first or second generation, causing serious indexing issues in 2026 because those themes are lacking the necessary structured data, cause excessive re-direction that confuses Google’s crawlers.
I will posting some practice stuff while I get used to editor changes.

Australia Day
Sad day almost no mention of that in the newspapers and not-happy people driving around trying to find the usual things for sale.
Yesterday we had junk mail delivered and my mailbox delivery system raised the delivery flag OMG. Made sure the system is disabled for today!
