I don't understand what you mean. How does this have to do with connecting to the (probably-not-running) IMAP service? > Not my area of expertise I'm afraid.

Outlook doesn't seem to need that, so, unless that's unsafe, why should I? Or could I get xp to 'remember' it? Btw, Outlook does ask permission if you try to, say, read the body of message. Anyway, the approach I suggested earlier (pw encrypted using key) is probably unlikely to solve the security issue, either. I mean, if the key itself (or a reference to it) is in my code, then anyone reading that code can decrypt it, right? g -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
