  I am having the same problem as some of the others. My file just showed up as a word_export_1. It didn’t have .xml attached to it, however it is an xml file. I renamed it so that it said word_export_1.xml but I still got the following message when I tried to import it: Sorry, there has been an error. The file is not an xml file. Please see instructions for downloading and using the Posterous backup file. I’m not sure what else to do!

  Would you please try importing it with a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome?
