I have tried several versions with the help of Henry, basically looking like this <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2><dtml-var title_or_id></h2> <p> This is the <dtml-var id> Document. </p> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> <dtml-sendmail mailhost="MailHost"> To: scheirich@nulleins.at From: test@www.nulleins.at Subject: Tester asdkjasdlkjasdjkaslkd asdasdasdasdasdasdasdasd </dtml-sendmail> Also tried editing via FTP i put in different lineending combiniations (UNIX, DOS, MAC) i don't know if they get translated inside zope, nothing works though. calling the MailHost directly like this <dtml-call "Mailhost.send('xxxxxxx','scheirich@nulleins.at','test@nulleins.at','This is a test')"> works, so all the security settings are correct. Even though it doesnt make me happy i can live with this solution for now. I still would like to know what is wrong. Is it a bug? My guess ist that the content of the <dtml-sendmail> tag is not being parsed, why i don't know. As a general question how would i go about to debug the code in Zope itself is there a "good" way or just put in trace messages and look at the log Harald At 9:06 PM +0100 3/2/01, Dieter Maurer wrote:

I am trying to use the dtml-sendmail tag but it is failing to cooperate. "sendmail" is very sensitive to leading white space. The mail headers ("To:", "From:" etc) must all start in the first column.
