I recall some people talking about actually turning Zope into a mail server. Frankly, I think that's a little crazy, but it might work. You can search the list if you're interested. A more common usage is to have a POP or IMAP server somewhere and use Zope as a client for that. There exist several products for doing webmail in Zope. http://www.pentila.com/produits/WebMail/ http://plonewebmail.openprojects.it/ for instance. --jcc -- "Building Websites with Plone" http://plonebook.packtpub.com/

Maybe you reread the thread you started some days ago: [Zope] Zope MailHost Query Especially my answer:

hi,

how do i receive mails using Zope mailhost??

MailHost is only for *sending* but not for receiving mails. Zope is *not* an SMTP server.

But there is a currently not very good documented smtp-server for zope. http://dev.legco.biz/products/smtpservice However, this is not a beginner tool. Maybe you rather try this one: http://mjablonski.zope.de/MailBoxer which works with an existing mail server and is more easy to use and debug. Regards Tino
