Posterous

Every time I try to upload my Posterous site, I get an error message the file is invalid. I am trying AGAIN to backup and download. Help?
Thank you.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Was the invalid file caused by inability to download the .zip file from Posterous?
I found this forum thread that deals with the Posterous .zip file and it may have something useful for you.

Could you try a different browser like FireFox or Chrome (http://browsehappy.com) since that seems to work for people who get ‘this is not an .xml file’, some very annoying and very common bug. If that doesn’t work, staff will have to import it for you (just post again here, and then they will assist).

It looks like you were trying to upload the entire zip file instead of just the XML file.
Could you please try again, being sure to upload just the XML file that’s contained within the zip? Let me know how it goes.

Thank you for the guidance. Quickly reaching wit’s end. I tried just uliading tbat 1 file today – still getting the error msg.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll try the import from this end on your site and will keep you posted.

I went ahead and did the import and I now see 42 posts on your site. If you notice anything amiss, just let me know.
