Hi Fredrik,
Thank you for the suggestion.

I tried different from/to settings and guess what? The mail came thru.

The script is now..
import win32com.client

s = win32com.client.Dispatch('CDO.Message')
s.From = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"                                (was
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
s.To = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"                                  (was
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
s.Subject = "The subject"
s.Send()


My problem is thought, the message is still not being sent via Outlook Express. What am I missing? Thanks again for your help so far!!

Kind regards
Ian

Unfortunately Outlook Express isn't programmable in the same way as Outlook. I used to use it because this property gave it a certain degree of immunity from macro viruses (back in the days when Outlook came configured to open any Office document it came across).

About the next you can do is to add your email address as a Cc and then file the messages when you receive them, I suspect.

Why the insistence on using Outlook Express, is you don;t mind me asking?
