I need to modify the sendemail.py from the Clip and Ship geoprocessing service in order to work with a MS Exchange Server email account. Is that possible? I want to add the srcipt as a schedule task not as a GP service. I know that the original script is using an SMTP server but I cannot find the libraries required to apply these changes. Any help will be appreciated.

import arcgisscripting, smtplib, os, sys, traceback

from email.MIMEMultipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.MIMEBase import MIMEBase
from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
from email.Utils import COMMASPACE, formatdate
from email import Encoders

gp = arcgisscripting.create(9.3)

#**********************************************************************
# Description:
#   Emails a file. File is assumed to be a zip file. Routine either attaches
#   the zip file to the email or sends the URL to the zip file.
#
# Parameters:
#   1 - File to send.
#   2 - Email address to send file.
#   3 - Name of outgoing email server.
#   4 - Output boolean success flag.
#**********************************************************************

def send_mail(send_from, send_to, subject, text, f, server, sendZip = False):

    # Construct the message
    #
    msg = MIMEMultipart()
    msg['From'] = send_from
    msg['To'] = COMMASPACE.join(send_to)
    msg['Date'] = formatdate(localtime=True)
    msg['Subject'] = subject

    if not sendZip:         # Send URL to zip file
        text = text + "\n\n" + f   
        msg.attach( MIMEText(text))  

    else:                   # Attach zip file
        msg.attach( MIMEText(text) )
        part = MIMEBase('application', "zip")   # Change if different file type sent.
        part.set_payload( open(f,"rb").read() )
        Encoders.encode_base64(part)
        part.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename="%s"' % os.path.basename(f))
        msg.attach(part)
       
    smtp = smtplib.SMTP(server)
   
    # If your server requires user/password, uncomment the smtp.login code
    #  below and supply your server user/password.

You can set up Microsoft Exchange account as an email server host. I did not try it, but I configure my Google and Yahoo email account as an email host and it works fine. Just make sure:

1. If your company has fire wall, it may be needed to be disabled.
2. Or use external network instead of internal network, which has fire wall set on.
3. You need to know your smtp server name and possibly port number.

Here is a link that may help. http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html

As for schedule work. It is possible too. What kind of schedule work you are referring to?
