Many thanks to everyone for your responses. Sounds to me like there's a market for another book, or a second edition of Abe Fettig's, but I think I'll crack on now with what we've already got - let's see how much of a mess I can get myself into :) David smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Crypto

Yeah, those reviews are excellent, but I couldn't remember where I'd read them. The O'Reilly book is ok if you want a lot of VERY basic examples of how to do stuff in Twisted. I also found the introduction somewhat useful, even though I knew most of it. I haven't read the Foundations of Python N
