[Zope] attribute error 'sendall' in sendmail tag

[Cornelis J. de Brabander]

Thank you, Hamish, that was enlightening and, of course, embarrassing as
well. I have two zope versions running (under windows NT). I had copied the
registry parameters of the 243 version to the the 251 version and changed
the z2.py path, but forgot to change the python.exe path. So my 251 version
was running under python 2.1.0 from the 243 install. (Nevertheless
SOFTWARE_HOME shows 'E:\zope\251\lib\python')
I still have to figure out some firewall settings, but I guess the sendmail
tag will behave then as expected.
Thanks again.
