Frequently Asked Questions

Can I post on my Multiply site by sending an e-mail?

Yes, and it's very easy to do! Just go to the Post Via E-mail setup page and create a PIN (Personal Identification Number), which can be from 3-20 characters long and contain letters or numbers. Then you'll be able to post to your Multiply site by sending e-mails to: PIN@username.multiply.com. Make sure to keep your PIN secret so nobody else can use it to post on your site.

The text you enter in the subject of your e-mail will become the title of your post and the body of your e-mail will become the description of your post. We'll post your e-mails as blog entries, unless...

• if you attach two or more photos to the e-mail we'll post it as a photo album.
• if you attach a video we'll post it on your videos page.
• if you attach a song we'll post it as a playlist.
• if either the subject or body of your e-mail has nothing but a URL in it, we'll post it as a Link.

Note: some e-mail providers may not support posting attachments via e-mail.

If you don't want your e-mail post to be shared on the Inbox page right away, you can include the word "DRAFT" (all CAPS) anywhere in the subject and we'll save it as a draft for you.

Note that posts via e-mail will not be shared with the people on your invite list.
