Email checkins failing
When I email Brightkite to check in at a place (sending @ work - for example) with nothing in the message body, I get an error message back.

Inappropriate?hi jason, i have to ask the obvious (please don't take offense), but did you define "work" as a placemark? also have you tried @work i.e. without the space?1 Comment Add a comment

Yes, work is defined a s a placemark, and I have tried with and without the space between @ & the placemark... -
Inappropriate?I've had the same problem for the several days I've tried BKite, and yes, I've added placemark and tried with and without space between @ and place. It is sometimes funny getting "did you mean main Liberia" for my main st. placemark, but more often frustrating since I really want to do travel reports from Bkite.
I’m ready for it to work.

Inappropriate?try the following email:
_____
to: <your personalised brightkite email address>
subject: <left blank>
body: @ work (or what ever placemark you've define)
<delete any remaining email fluff like signatures, disable them if necessary>
_____
can you paste an export of the sent mail you're sending? don't forget to blank out your own email address and your brightkite address!
I’m confident

That worked: thank you.

It would be really helpful if you updated your help section to reflect this. Especially for those of us outside the US who have to use email to interact with Brightkite.

that's great to hear jason!

Thanks Brady: appreciate the speed with which you dealt to this issue.

Inappropriate?I just realized I was in the wrong problem area as my problem was sending a text check-in, not email. Sorry.
I’m senile
