RE: Python not mailing reports via Retrospect event handler



You might want to try the Dantz forums on this one.

I too have the same problem.  The scripts run but Python never seems to kick in to send the message.  If your issue is the same as
mine look in /tmp.  You will find a macmail.message which should be the guts of the last message that should have been sent.  I had
this working at one point but my in my attempts to get Retrospect working properly this has some how broken.
