smtpd is for relaying mail not for sending. What you need it a dns toolkit (search cheeseshop) to map domain name to list of incoming mail servers, and then using stdlib smtplib try to submit the message to them. > Or maybe there is a better way to to this? This won't work if you're behind a strict corporate firewall or if ISP is blocking port 25 outgoing connections. In those cases you _have_ to use an external mail server. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
