So let's see the version with the "print" statements in it, not the sanitised version you didn't copy-and-paste fro your python source :-) For the record, it's clear that youa ren't resetting the senders to an empty list each time but growing it as you go round the loop. If this helps you find your error, at least confirm that you did indeed find the problem. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://holdenweb.blogspot.com Recent Ramblings http://del.icio.us/steve.holden -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
