I mean installing the script on a server where spammers can run it and stick you with the blame for people getting unwanted mail. There used to be some similar perl scripts running all over the place until that happened. > Don't worry anyway, I won't do either and I'm running 2 firewalls on > my PC. It would be really naive to expose the web app, wouldn't it? Well, you should have some kind of user authentication if you expose it, and you should read up a bit about security for web apps. Python is actually not such a great language for this, but you certainly get more readable code than you would with perl. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
