Just in case any of you are still watching this thread, I thought I should post the exciting conclusion!
Not too exciting, actually. In the end, I've simply added my Python script to crontab. It runs every 20 minutes, and if the mailing file has changed, it sends out the e-mails. Pretty simple, and actually what I was first advised. Pity I thought I could find a better way. ;) Thanks to everyone who helped me out! I learned a lot, so it was worth my screw-ups. gilrain -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
