It works for me. >>> import math as spam >>> spam <module 'math' from '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/mathmodule.so'> >>> import email.mime.text as ham >>> ham <module 'email.mime.text' from '/usr/lib/python2.5/email/mime/text.pyc'> My guess is that you are trying to import individual objects from a module using the package dot notation: >>> import math.sin as eggs Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named sin -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
