[Zope3-Users] ImportError when calling runzope.

[David Pratt]

Hi Luke. It seems that you may have copied package-includes files from 
an instance of an older distribution to your newer one or perhaps your 
are trying to use an older zope instance for your newer zope version.

The error is pointing to sendmail-meta.zcml as the source of your 
trouble. In this distribution you should not have a sendmail-meta.zcml 
or sendmail-configure but a mail-meta.zcml and mail-configure.zcml since 
mail is in zope.app.mail.

So you can compare name what you have in your instance to what is in the 
distribution you downloaded and fix this accordingly or alternatively, 
follow the instructions for making a new zope instance. This should also 
give you a working zope instance.

Regards,
David
