Well, it went off with almost no glitches. All of my linked profiles were updated with the exception of the Vestor Logic Fan Page. Posterous did however autopost to my Facebook profile but it took over an hour for it to show up. Better late than never.
I removed the Facebook Fan Page and re-linked it. This post will tell us if it worked this time!Update: Autopost Experiment on Posterous

Customizing the autopost feature on Posterous
September 8, 2009 by Tim Miner
Great feature on Posterous! If you've never used Posterous, you should take a look. It is a blog platform that allows you to post by email but comes with a few key features for those users that are active on many platforms. The most interesting of these features is the autopost feature that allows you to post to Posterous and have it autopost to all of your other profiles.
I have used Ping.fm for clients in the past to auto-post to other social profiles, but it doesn't compare to the easy of use on Posterous. It took less than 10 minutes to add my accounts and I didn't have any snags with Facebook. Ping.fm took me weeks to get both the personal profile and Fan Page integrated and a few days later one would work and the other would not. This is the first post to test how it propagates across all of my profiles. I will follow up with a second post to share the findings. Fingers crossed!
