...passing comment, this is extremely bad code.
A bare try/except is bad.
Why catch the exception in the first place, just let it propogate.
try:
mailhost.send(printed, mTo, mFrom, mSubj)
request.RESPONSE.redirect('/sbps/application_success')
except:
request.RESPONSE.redirect('/sbps/application_error')
Another bare except, also insanely bad...
You could do with looking at either MailTemplates or, better still,
Twiddler with a plain text input parser and email output renderer.
cheers,
Chris

[Zope] MailHost and Bcc
Good morning!
My web site utilizes forms pretty extensively, and I've been trying to
figure out how--on one particular form, an admission application--to bcc all
copies to another address. Depending on which campus the applicant chooses,
the app is emailed to a different person; the program director wants to
receive ALL the apps, without the other recipients knowing. But I just
can't seem to make it work. Of course, that might have something to do with
the fact that I'm not a programmer, which is why I'm asking for help. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated! The coding looks like this:
# Example code:
# Import a standard function, and get the HTML request and response objects.

Re: [Zope] MailHost and Bcc
I doubt that the MailHost supports bcc with the send() function.
I for one don't use the MailHost's send() function. I just use it's
_send() function for the actual sending and I create the email message
manually using the email package in python. But that's a whole different
story.
If you look up the Secure MailHost product I think it has a function
called secureSend() or something which I think has a bcc parameter that
you might find useful.
