More than 24 hours before, the import has failed. 0 posts imported. Nothing. Completely stalled.

Also, check WHAT with Posterous? I’ve verified the login credentials. This has been going on for a week and a half now.

pezhammer, I have reset your importer. Would you please try again?

pfanderson, I’m not sure to be honest. There is absolutely nothing on this end preventing the import, so something on their end must be preventing the export.

Well, this is interesting. I went to Posterous and tried to file a question. Logging in was no problem, but when it came to placing the question, they asked for a second password, a UserVoice password that I didn’t know about. I tried using my regular password and it didn’t work. I tried resetting the UserVoice password, and that worked to allow the error report to go through. Almost immediately after this, I received an email message saying that the import was successful! Bizarre, isn’t it?

Excellent. :) It sounds like there was an issue with their password system.

24 hours before, the second try has completely failed. Zero stuff imported. Again.

In that case, would you please check with Posterous? Maybe you have the same password issue as pfanderson did.

I’ve checked that yesterday. No new password needed to make a question or something like that.

Hm, would you please get in touch with them anyway? There’s nothing on our end that could be blocking the import.

Ok, I’ve already send them a question about this affair. Thank you.
