Upgraded to a premium account last night, super excited to begin really using my SoundCloud account and I just got the dreaded error this AM ...

Sorry, that track is too hot for us!
Oh, damn! We couldn't create the waveform for your track. We're checking it right now and will try to fix it asap!

It seems to happen with contacts already in apple address book.

Englis, yes. Not sure what to say other than ... the default behavior seems confusing when using Google Apps for my domain. Setting up Postbox requires some manual config to get things working and in the process you end up with random folders you don't want.

Essentially, it should just work. No extra folders, and no unexpected behavior. Postbox could be an awesome (much better) companion to Gmail/Google Apps e-mail, and it would be awesome to have that working as expected for gmail users.

Another example of working well with or complimenting gmail would be a send and archive button.

Using Google Apps for my domain, and the default drafts and sent mail folders for postbox don't map properly to gmail, creating an [Imap]/Drafts and an [Imap]/Sent. When I mapped sent to my gmail sent it created another folder, and then mapping drafts created another folder.

I was in a "where the heck did all these come from, and which ones do I keep" confusion created by a default install of postbox.

I guess what I'm saying is there should be some preset that does the right thing, or a darn good tutorial showing how to set this up. Preferably the former. So far this has been my only negative experience with postbox.

140 and fewer character tweets sometimes truncated. Why?

Bookmark for iPhone - create a list

Here is a bookmark for safari that will create a List e-mail to Sandy on the iPhone - "mailto:your@sandyemail.iwantsandy.com?subject=List%20to%20Sandy&body=Remember%20?%0A*%20?%0A*%20?%0A*%20?"

Phone is selected in the side bar, and I've deleted the IM config to see if that would help. Still no joy. Mobile notifications "ON" and nothing else.

Having the same problem with notifications to my phone ... iPhone on AT&T. I can send notifications, but don't receive. I've triple checked settings and have sent the ON message a few times.
