Hi Jeff,

We "example.com" was just an example :), I used the right url instead.
The real message is:

<entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";
  xmlns:wt="http://schemas.google.org/webmasters/tools/2007";>  .
<id>http://www.massage-info.nl/sitemap.php</id>
<category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind'
    term='http://schemas.google.org/webmasters/tools/2007#site-info'/
>
  <wt:verification-method type="metatag" in-use="true"/>
</entry>


It seems to be an api problem. When I use the web interface I have no
problem at all.
