For my blog people are able to post via email and the emails are getting sent back with the following message. HOW DO I FIX THIS!!!??????
This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: (email removed for privacy)
Technical details of permanent failure: You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha.
Update:
The email address being used is correct. But once a certain number of posts have been made they start returning them... with my site that is not okay... how can I fix this problem!!!???
Okay, I have some useful information about "You have exceeded the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha." Here's the deal:
When you get the auto-message "You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha," it sounds like solving a captcha will re-enable your post-by-email privileges, right? And if not, you'd expect Blogger to have more readily available information available on the post-by-email settings page. Not so!
What actually happens is that Blogger only allows you post a certain number of posts by email within a 24-hour period. I am not sure what that number is, but based on trial and error, and Googling other people's descriptions of the problem, it is something like 30 or 40 posts.
Even if you have your settings so that your post-by-email posts are saved as drafts, and not immediately published, Blogger will still cut you off from posting-by-email, and bounce emailed posts back to the sender.
After you are cut off for that 24-hour period, you have to go into your blog and manually add each post, solving a captcha for each post. In the next 24-hour period, the block will be lifted and you'll be able to post-by-email again. Also, the 24-hour period is not based on the calendar day, and doesn't necessarily take 24-hours from the time you got cut off. It could be sooner than that if you emailed a bunch of posts much earlier in the day, and only "tripped" the cutoff limit later on.
What Blogger's auto-message should say is more like, "You have exceeded a limit for captcha-free, post-by-email posts within a 24-hour period. You may resume posting-by-email in about a day. To post more entries immediately, you may always login to your Blogger account and post manually."
I hope this is useful to some of my fellow Blogspot bloggers!
Marissa Mayer runs such a tight UI ship at Google, but the standards have not been well enforced at Blogger yet. I don't think she'd allow such a confusing sentnce, not to mention the typo of "the the," out of the Google gate. Oh well, maybe soon...

This is happening to me, too. It has nothing to do with having the right email address (I mean, of course you need the right address, but this isn't the problem).
I am setting up a new blog with content I wrote on my own over the past two years, which I have saved in emails. The easiest way to populate these hundreds of blog posts is to send them to my mail-to-blogger address.
But after only about 25 posts, I was cut off with the same message:
"You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha."
At first, a prompt appeared on my next login to Blogger saying that my Google account had been deactivated. So I went to Google, and on login, was presented with some login challenges, which I passed. My Google account was immediately unlocked at that point, but my mail-to-blogger functionality continued to be suspended.
I toggled back to the Blogger tab with that "Google deactivation" message, and clicked the link. But even though it was a Blogger link, I was presented with a big warning about how I shouldn't continue with the next page's form unless I my Google account was currently deactivated, or it could cause problems. Well, since I'd just reactivated it, that seemed like it would be a bad plan.
Now I have to manually create every entry, and solve a CAPTCHA to post every entry. Solving a CAPTCHA has no effect on my being able to recoup my mail-to-blogger functionality.
This is infuriating. There is obviously a big disconnect between Blogger.com allowing login and/or denial based on Google passwords, but then not getting the messge when Google blocks have been lifted.
Same problem here. It worked and suddenly stopped working out of the blue. I wonder if 10MB is not an ABSOLUTE limit i.e. ==> "Use this address to post text and images (up to 10 MB in size)" <== but that would be just silly. Unless Google wants money to use this feature and allows to send 10MB for free as an extortive measure?

Even after I go to a browser and log in the with the same credentials to get rid of CAPTCHA it doesn't work. I cannot post from my Droid can someone help?
Joekort, do you mean it doesn't even let you solve the CAPTCHA? If so, I'm sorry, I don't know how to help you.
But if it does let you solve one CAPTCHA and post one post, then I think you misunderstood the point about the CAPTCHA. You cannot "get rid of the CAPTCHA." Blogger only allows you post a certain number of posts by email within a 24-hour period. After that, you are cut off, and you have to go into your blog and manually add each post, solving a captcha for each post. But in the next 24-hour period, the block will be lifted and you'll be able to post-by-email again.

Funny, I get these warnings, but it still posts to my blog. Not sure what these silly emails are all about, but I've racked up 105 such emails in the last year.
Where can we post or send questions to find out if there are ways to eliminate or raise the limit? While I find this information very enlightening, it doesn't solve the problem of the limit being too low for any useful endeavor.
