Any mail client using SMTP will be outbound only, you wouldn't be able to send mail "through" the client using SMTP. >From a post earlier today :) s = smtplib.SMTP("server") s.sendmail(fromaddress, toaddresess, msg) You can send email directly to your local server (or direct to the recipeint server) directly from your python "script" HTH :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
