Thanks to everyone who's replied. gordyt, I didn't dare dream anyone would hand me fully functional source code, so thank you very much for that. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me, likely because of some complication from my company's firewall. All things considered, going through Gmail is an unnecessary step if I can run a server on my own PC. Is there any hope of this working? Can it be done easily? Is there anything I should know about the SMTPServer object, and are there any other modules I'd need? Thanks again for all the help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
