Python can not control data that is added to the message after it has left the python program. If you want to retain maximum possible control of the mail process from within python, you need to use a python module that handles the smtp exchange with the destination mta, however even then you can not control the content of header lines added by that destination mta, which will invariably include the real[1] ip address of your system. [1] The ip address that it is sending ack packets to as part of the smtp session, so unless you're using a proxy somewhere, this will be your system's ip address. Can't fake it. If the other system doesn't know your ip address, it can't send acks, and the tcp session fails. -- Denis McMahon, denismfmcma...@gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
