Figured out the problem with using the list method for path manipulation. My latest code is at: http://git.exim.org/users/tlyons/exim.git So far, the code can do the following: 1. If python script alone is specified, exim attempts to load it from python system paths. 2. If full path to python script is specified, it splits the path and adds it to the system paths, then attempts to load it. 3. Expansion can call a function (ignores args) 4. Expansion can handle a returned string response. 5. Expansion can detect a returned {int,long_int,float}, but not really do anything with it. The following test code: def string_output(): # Just a simple string being returned return "Just a simple string" def whole_number_output(): # Just a simple number being returned return 5 def decimal_number_output(): # A decimal number being returned return 8.8382912 def negative_number_output(): return -800 Produces this output: [exim-build@tlyons ~/projects/exim/src (master_volatile_python)]$ build-Linux-i386/exim -be '${python{negative_number_output}}' Integer returned [exim-build@tlyons ~/projects/exim/src (master_volatile_python)]$ build-Linux-i386/exim -be '${python{decimal_number_output}}' Float returned [exim-build@tlyons ~/projects/exim/src (master_volatile_python)]$ build-Linux-i386/exim -be '${python{whole_number_output}}' Integer returned [exim-build@tlyons ~/projects/exim/src (master_volatile_python)]$ build-Linux-i386/exim -be '${python{string_output}}' Just a simple string -- The total budget at all receivers for solving senders' problems is $0.
