tempestamedia on "[Plugin: Postie] Adding A Custom Variable to URL String"

$

We are using the latest version of Postie. It's a great tool. However, we're having a challenge with article titles vs. URL strings.

We want to post our articles, via email (through Postie) to our website. We need the URL of the post to include an article ID. The article ID is currently being passed, as part of the article title, through the subject line of the email. For example.

"Postie is Great 23847"

We need to be able to strip the article ID from the title, when it gets published, but maintain the article ID in the URL. For example:

"http://www.mysite.com/posts/postie-is-great-23847"

But the Post Title:

"Postie is Great"

What approach should we take to make this effectively work with Postie? Is there a specific tag or configuration we should use? Should we use the body of the email for the title and leave the article ID in the subject line? We could really use some help on this.

Thank you.
