Still playing with auto-casting

Eric loves Feedburner with a passion -- has been a loyal user since the very first episode of the Ericast back in March of 2005. But when he switched the feeds for this Talkr feed, so that they work their way into the Ericast automatically, he started getting strange errors. That, paired with the fact that Feedburner was several hours late in delivering his test podcast on Friday, has caused him to drop Feedburner and try something called "R-Mail" to bounce these spoken files over to the Ericast blog for publication.

The problem is, Eric is doing this without testing it. That's what this post is for; it's his first experience with R-Mail.org. So if something goes really, really wrong, we'll know why.

This is being written Saturday morning, and Eric is lining up all the files (including an Ericast On-The-Road segment) for a real podcast later today.

Early thanks to Matt in California for the call; I'm glad you like my voice. Thank you! Listen to this article Listen to this article
