Have you tried making a local replica of your mail database (or some subset) and
using your Python code against it?  As you no doubt know, Notes allows full
access to local database but may require a password for external programs (e.g.
EasySync for PalmPilot) that access server-based databases.  I don't know if
that's your situation, nor do I know how to supply a password from a Python
program.

Also, check out http://www.zope.org/Members/cba/Domino_and_Zope _ know that
example (uses local address book) works.
