Hello, I have to implement a mail server type program for a project using python. I have already implemented smtp and pop3 protocol to send and retrieve mail at the client side. I used an existing mail server account to test the code. Now, I need to write the functionality of the mail server end. My goal is to receive emails from a few accounts, look at the to addresses and forward it to different mailboxes. And, different users should be able to pick up mail from their mailboxes. I am new to python and from what I have learned, I need to use SimpleSocketServer. I am not clear about how it will get an email type file and then put it in the right mailbox. I don't need to do too much fancy address checking, spam filtering etc.
Is there a simple way to approach this? Will really appreciate the input. Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
