Do you think it is a bad practice to write a complete email message in the subject field? I think it is! Please, twit on twitter!

Control your PC through Emails

Network security in large organizations is making it almost impossible to access your office PC from remote location.

I wrote this small application in Python that allows you to communicate with a remote PC using emails . This application is polling an inbox (pop3) to find commands to execute.

When a new command is received, it is executed and the response is sent back to the caller by email.

The program can execute shell commands and download and upload files from/to the remote PC.

You can find full application code at the following location:

Have fun,
