[Toolserver-l] Dump-Mail-Service

[Nicolas Dumazet]

Hello !

If it can save time to somebody, I wrote that simple python script a
few months ago :
http://pastebin.com/fa3658d9

Initially, that snippet was using some GTK code, to prompt alerts on
my laptop when a new dump was available, but... it got boring,
particularly because it was, oh noes, prompting GTK alerts on every
error -- and yes, not having a connection would prompt network errors.
Stupid code kid :)
