Sorry, you mentioned you wanted to use the Unix mail program.
Is your information static? If yes, how bout this. cmd = "mail -s 'my subject' [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> < /path/to/static_message" os.system(cmd) Similar approach could be to capture the users message body as command line arguments, save them to a file, and then include them in the execution. Not very sexy, but it will work. example ############## ~>/tmp/mail_wrapper.py this is the body of my message ['this', 'is', 'the', 'body', 'of', 'my', 'message'] #!/usr/bin/env python import sys message = sys.argv[1:] # save message variable to a file # execute mail command < file On 4/16/07, Tom Tucker < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
