It works perfectly accessing gmail. If I knew more about SSL, then I'd have already figured out what keyfile and certfile were. -- Dissent is patriotic, remember? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Don't know about the method you're trying, and this may be total overkill, but you can do anything with Google from Python using the Python Client Library: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gdata/2.0.4 Here's a Getting Started Guide for using the library: http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/articles/python_client_lib.html Here's an overview of authorization to Google services: http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/GettingStarted.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
