fileupload

I am writing an application, similar to Seti@Home, that allows users to run processing on their home machine, and then upload the result to the central server.

However, the final result is maybe a 10K binary file. (Processing to achieve this output is several hours.)

What is the simplest reliable automatic method to upload this file to the central server? What do I need to do server-side to prevent blocking? Perhaps having the client send mail is simple and reliable? NB the client program is currently written in Python, if that matters.
