Thank you! It did indeed fix that problem. Now I get this traceback:

   msg = 'Here is the order from %s:\n\n %s' % (string.replace(client,
'_', ' '), order)

             if self.debuglevel > 0: print>>stderr, 'reply:', repr(line)

 *global* *SMTPServerDisconnected* = <class smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected>*
SMTPServerDisconnected*: Connection unexpectedly closed
      args = ('Connection unexpectedly closed',)

Why did this connection close? How do I fix it?
TIA,
