Dear Thought Deposit:
I’m not writing this from within Thunderbird, as I would prefer, but through a slick new client called Drivel. This client is used to post to blogs.
Other clients: http://codex.wordpress.org/Weblog_Client
1) Select “MoveableType” as blogging type.
2) Enter in “http://10.0.4.20/wordpress/xmlrpc.php” as the address for the blog.

Hmmm people swear by Ecto too, but there’s no Linux client — just Windows and OSX.
