Just throwing my 2 cents in here: I don't think it'd be appropriate in OpenBSD base, but i'd love to get involved in writing a *nix environment in a "safe" language and at one point was thinking of building a linux distro where all the core tools are in Python - more for the fun of it than

My suggestion to resolve the whole issue: forward mail through your ISP's mailserver or go and buy a cheap VPS. Amazon EC2 micro instances work fine for the purpose, and it is possible with some hackery to install OpenBSD on them. --- “Lanie, I’m going to print more printers. Lots more printers.
