[Zope] Type Error when using ETailer

[Norman Khine]

Hello,
I just installed the etailor e-commerce product, on to

Zope Version  	Zope 2.3.2b2 (binary release, python 1.5.2, win32-x86)
Python Version  	1.5.2 (#0, Jul 30 1999, 09:52:18) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)]
System Platform  	win32

Which is a Win2K

and got a type error when trying to use the mailhost ie to buy a product and
then send the request I got this Type Error.

I then set it up on to a FreeBSD4.2 machine, thinking it is to do with the
Win2K, which has

Zope Version  Zope 2.3.2b2 (source release, python 1.5.2, linux2)
Python Version  2.0 (#2, Jan 8 2001, 16:54:34) [GCC 2.95.2 19991024
(release)]
System Platform  freebsd4

What I think it is, is to do with the version of zope I am using, this is
because on version 3.2.1b1 this product works well.

Can someone please tell me if I am correct and how I may look to edit the
code so as it is compliant with this version of zope

Many thanks

Norman
