[Tutor] Can't run this script while I'm logged off of Windows XP

[Eduardo Vieira]

Hello, I'm making a script that daily grabs some information and email
it to some of my coworkers. It runs all the other parts while I'm
logged off, but this part doesn't. I need to be logged on for it to
work. Also, when I'm logged on to my Windows XP I just can't make it
send. It only sits in my mailbox. I have to manually press "send" to
get it sent.

here is the code that won't work:
import win32com.client

try:
    s = win32com.client.Dispatch("Mapi.Session")
    s.Logon("Default")

    Msg = s.Outbox.Messages.Add("Daily Activity Report", report)

    testaddresses = [
                'test1 at expresssignproducts.com',
    ##            '1 at expresssignproducts.com',
    ##            '2 at expresssignproducts.com',
    ##            '3 at expresssignproducts.com',
                        ]

    for address in testaddresses:
        Msg.Recipients.Add(address)


    Msg.Send()


    s.DeliverNow()

    s.Logoff()

except:
    logfile.write("Couldn't write email")

#===
So, I'm coming to a conclusion that it is not possible to send emails
while logged off.
