  Have you read this entry? http://en.support.wordpress.com/import/import-from-posterous/ You cannot upoad a zip file. It must be an xml file. Go here http://browserhappy.com and try downloading and using either Firefox 20 or Chrome 26.

  Hi there!

  I show that you tried to upload the entire .zip file on March 8, 2013 and haven’t attempted any imports since then.

  Please ensure you unzip your Posterous export file and ONLY upload the .xml file as instructed here:

  Let me know if you still have trouble.
