The problem is definitely related to the interface settings for python to sendmail mailing. PHP and Pine both send email successfully to both locally and remotely hosted addresses. For interest I have found similar errors reported by Zope users: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/zope/message/2645<BR>
<BR>
Initially smtp was not running. This has now been set-up through Xinetd and is running:<BR>
<BR>
<I>netstat -a<BR>
Active Internet connections (servers and established)<BR>
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State <BR>
tcp 0 0 *:pop3 *:* LISTEN <BR>
tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN <BR>
tcp 0 0 ns0.imagineinterne:smtp *:* LISTEN <BR>
</I><BR>
But still messages in qfiles are not being posted, and we get the same error in logs/smtp:<BR>
<BR>
<I>Dec 20 09:12:03 2001 (10830) All recipients refused: (111, 'Connection refused')<BR>
Dec 20 09:12:03 2001 (10830) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.002 seconds<BR>
</I><BR>
Which is not too helpful. <BR>
Thoughts please?!<BR>

Can you telnet to port 25 on this machine?<BR>
<BR>
I wonder if you've got a firewall rule or something lying around.<BR>
