WordPress to core Joomla
There are several tools (one free) that can help with migrating WordPress to core Joomla.
CMigrator: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/migration-a-conversion/data-import-a-export/19583
J2XML WordPress Importer (Free): http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension-specific/extensions-specific-non-sorted/25375
JConverter: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/migration-a-conversion/data-import-a-export/10237
CMS2CMS: http://www.cms2cms.com/supported-cms/wordpress-to-joomla-migration/
The J2XML free option only migrates categories and posts. The paid tools support migration of pages, users, images and comments to varying degrees.
WordPress to Joomla Third Party Blog Extensions
There are other options to import from WordPress into Joomla blogging extensions such as:
WordPress to JoomBlog Converter: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/migration-a-conversion/data-import-a-export/21946
EasyBlog can apparently migrate a WordPress blog: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/authoring-a-content/blog/12630
RSBlog! can apparently import a WordPress blog: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/authoring-a-content/blog/14679
Posterous to Joomla
I’m not aware of any tools to import Posterous data directly into Joomla but there seem to be a few tools to import Posterous data to WordPress e.g.:

It looks like the best course of action is to import your Posterous data into WordPress before migrating your WordPress site to Joomla.
There is a joomla plugin to do this but you have to pay:

Posterous backup – sounds interesting, but I think joomla forums would be more informative in your case. They discuss your issue a lot, and it appears there are a couple ways to migrate for you.
See this thread as an example: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=706&t=796382
Best of luck, bro!
