Hi:
I want to create a simple program that takes executable mail scripts and sends an email to the location defined in the script. I was looking at OCAML since it is claimed that the language is designed for making interpreters. I would prefer something with frameworks to make my job easier; I'm more of a scripting programmer than a Computer Scientist. Creating and learning algorithms just aren't going to fly unless that is my only option.

I am by no means a programmer, but I've been slowly learning Python. It seems to be good for scripting and may work for you.
but I have decided to go with Java for now. I'm also looking at ruby.
