Until you get a MESSAGE which has a " sign in it, or a FROM.

(Sorry, didn't see this message before.)

In order to prevent trouble with this, it might be better to use 
subprocess and to do

sp = subprocess.Popen(['mail', '-f', FROM, '-s', SUBJECT,
     'support@superhost.gr], stdin=subprocess.PIPE)
sp.communicate(MESSAGE)
res = sp.wait()
if res:
     ...
else:
     ...


If you do so, you can have FROMs, SUBJECTs and MESSAGEs conaining every 
character you want, including " and ', an no shell will complain about 
it or be confused.

(Note that I changed the arguments for mail a little bit, because -s 
prevedes the subject and -f the from.)
