Everythings good with the arduino because I made the intial state of the mail variable to HIGH and the light turns on... I must be having trouble reading the ser.write('m') command from the gmail-check.py program... any suggestions?

BUT I can get terminal to say that the plist file is loaded but the ardiuno board just sits there. All the py files, and plist files are written the same as is the arduino software. I have the arduino duemilanove board which has a auto reset button located on it. Would that have any effect or is the board new enough to where it bypasses that? but main issue is that the board won't light unless the you set the int mail = HIGH at the beginning of the arduino code (and it just stays lit). plz HELP So I have been attempting to make this project work so that I can graduate.

As soon as I close the app (hyperterminal/python) the board either re-sets or otherwise stops lighting up. My board is a RBBB from moderndevices and requires a physical button-push reset to program (has no C6 capacitor). Anyone have suggestions?! Thanks! Seems to work ONLY if I leave the serial port open.

As you may have seen from my previous post, I mashed up a little LED glow light thing with my arduino. A few lines of code and a bit of head scratching later and I was sitting pretty with a light up mail/hit notifier. The project is based on two other arduino projects I found online and all code used in this “How to” is based upon the code from the arduino xmas bell and the arduino gmail notifier.

I'm not really sure why this could be happening, but it could be something to do with you running a different version of Python than the one that comes with Mac OS X, or perhaps the Serial library wasn't installed properly.
