My post appears different from how I composed it

Differences in formatting can occur because of differences in the way some programs display your post and the HTML we display as your post on your Posterous Space. The conversion between the two is sometimes imperfect.

Instead of composing messages in a word processor and then copy and pasting it into your email client (or the Web Editor), we recommend composing your posts directly in your email client.

We’re constantly trying to improve our text processing to make sure your post appears just as you intended. If you see consistent errors, please email us at help@posterous.com and include the email client you are using and it’s version number.
