They can't send you mail because they don't have your public key to encrypt the mail.'' ...is pretty confusing - because "public key" is a term with a technical meaning in cryptography - and a public key really *is* public. If you want to allow email only from a list of senders, then you use a simple white list. Cryptography is not needed or desirable if this is the intended goal. -- __________ |im |yler http://timtyler.org/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Remove lock to reply. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
