Is there any other way (other than email's !) to notify a user of events within a script? Thanks for all the help. Cheers -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Perhaps by using instant messaging, eg: Jabber? (http:// jabberpy.sourceforge.net/) You could create an account for the daemon/script and have it send messages to the client throughout the script's execution. Fewer security concerns in that setup! Aidan Steele.
