Using pure python scripts with django is not all that difficult, as django itself is a python package. So , you can simply have a custom script "mailserver.py" (or whatever name) and you import the script to your views and simply call the functions from your custom script under the respective user request. For Example:--Custom Script = mailserver.pydef sendWelcomeEmail(to, from):""" Function to send aWelcome email to First Time Subscribers."""Django App's Views.pyfrom django.http import HttpResponseimport mailserverdef firstTimers(request):usermail = request.POST['email']mailserver.sendWelcome(useremail, 'myn...@mydomain.com') success = '<html><body><h1>Mail Sent.</h1></body></html>'return HttpResponse(success)On Fri, Aug 31, 2012 at 10:51 AM, Dennis Lee Bieber <wlf...@ix.netcom.com> wrote:

Taken literally, to me it implies that you have a template email in
which someone fills out fields and sends it to "you", whereupon you will
take the information in the email, validate it, record it in some user
database, and email back some random account name and password.
Or it could mean you are supposed to have a web-page for users to
register, you record their name, password, and email address in a
database but do not activate it yet, then send an email to them with
instructions that they reply to it if they are really the person who
attempted to register. Then when you receive the reply you match it
against the database and activate the account.

email messages, or only periodically read inbound email from a POP3
mailbox?
I'd suggest you start with the documentation for your version of
Pyhthon... In particular the "Python Standard Library" manual. Try the
chapter on "Internet Protocols and Support" (in my copy, for Python 2.7,
this is chapter 20), SimpleHTTPServer (20.19) and CGIHTTPServer (20.20),
poplib (20.9), smtplib (20.12), maybe smtpd (20.13).
On top of that, the chapter on "Internet Data Handling" (chapter 18
in my copy), email (18.1), mailbox (18.4)
"Data Persistance" (11), sqlite3 (11.13)
If you need a more capable server than the two mentioned above,
check the chapter "Interprocess Communication" (17), asyncore (17.6)
I would think the instructor wouldn't have given you a "no

on outside packages.
