I think it would be awsome to come up with a email system. So you could
setup an internal or external email system. Sending messages from user
to user in the same system and so forth.
I think it could provide a lot of functionality for intranet systems
like schools and businesses. And my personal interest is to have this
for social networking systems.
Any ideas and thoughts on it?
Regards,
Jason Brower

python already provides smtplib. web2py has an interface to it.


from gluon.contrib.utils import
*
mail=Mail
()
mail.settings.server='smtp.gmail.com:
587'

mail.sender='y...@somewhere.com'
mail.login=None or
'username:password'
mail.send(to=
['y...@whatever.com'],subject='None',message='None')

You can put anywhere you like.

Hello Massimo,
I follow this thread with lot of interest and There is no such
utils.py in the "contrib" package..
There is Utils in the "gluon" package instead but no such "Mail" class
inside it...

I'm currently using the latest version of Web2py (1.61.4)
????

Thanks,
Yannick P.

I guess you were talking about :
from gluon.tools import *
