Doesn't this overwrite your data structure?
I would strongly advise using another name.

Should work.

It should worjk as you expect.
However personally I'd use a class to define tyour data structure and
just have a top leveldictionary holding instances of the class.
Something like:
class Login:
def __init__(self, countries, IPs, count):
self.countries = countries
self.IPs = IPs
self.count = count
results = {'f...@bar.de': Login([DE,DK,UK],
['192.168.1.1','172.10.10.10'],
[12])
}
if auth in results and (myvalue in results[auth].Countries):
...
BTW should count really be a list?
> 2. How do I append new values to these lists within the nested dict?
Same as any other list, just use the append() method:
dic[key1][key2].append(value)
or with a class:
results[auth].IPs.append(value)
