Hi Kester,

 me again.... :)

 Oops, I did it again... ;)

 will say:
 I renamed *pyo to *.pyc as you suggested.
 I start up blender with no object at all (fresh sceen -- previously
 I had a simple lamp-with-a-sphere-scene to test).
 Then I split screen to add-new lanc-* (the povanim thingy).

 I pressed ALT-P and....
 Yes, you are right, no PYTHON-ERROR dialog anymore....
 ....my box freezes at once.

 It _seems_ (I have no possibility to debug anyting, since my box hard
 locks) that it is a "eating up the resources"- or "eating up the
 CPU-power on kernel level"-thing. I pressed SysReq B to reboot right
 after I noticed that the machine has locked. And it reboots.

 This was not possible previously when I waited longer in hope that my
 box came back to reality... (false hope).
  
 Concerning the mail """problem""": I took a closer look to the
 bounced mail. I am directly sending mail to the recipients without an
 ISP, which works fine in nearly all cases.... This was sent to me by
 your ISP:

    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
    
    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
    
      Christopher.Maddock.1@uni.massey.ac.nz
        SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<Christopher.Maddock.1@uni.massey.ac.nz>:
        host mu-relay1.massey.ac.nz [130.123.2.98]: 504 <solfire>:
        Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname

 Kind regards and
 keep hacking! :)
 Meino
