smptlib frustration!

[Hornberger, Chris]

Capture the stderr stream as well as stdout. it's not uncommon for status messages to go to stderr rather than stdout on occasion.

No, really. I've got the card to prove it.

Subject: smptlib frustration!


Ok I have written a perfectly well working script that uses smptlib
module to email myself if the script ended in success or failure. 
However, this module automatically outputs the results to the console
to show the status of the connection/send/recieve etc...  This is a
big problem for me.  I am trying to run this script from Backup Exec
as a pre-processing job.  This causes my script to always fail because
Backup Exec pre-processing jobs can not output to a console!  What am
I to do?  Is there a way to stop this module from outputing the status
to the console without having to actually modify the standard module? 
Thanks!
