Hi,

I'm no big Un*x- nor Python-Guru, but I think the "at"-program works
somehow very complicated by storing a file in the directory
/var/spool/atjobs/ or
somewhere ... and later the crondaemon executes that stuff (perhaps ?!).
Anyway, if you are already working on a Un*x-mashine, I would propose
doing it like this:

import os
os.system('at ....') # your at-call like you used to do it before
