  Hi. I did a test of the [excerpt] shortcode per the support documentation:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-email/#shortcodes

  Here’s what you would do if you posted your question on your blog.

  From: <my email address>
To: <yoursecretaddress>@post.wordpress.com
Subject: The title of my post
