[jira] [Comment Edited] (JAMES-1933) James should implement all
protocols that secure email delivery on the web
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1933?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15942605#comment-15942605 ]

Hi Matthieu,
I've tried building James on an Ubuntu 16.04 Virtualbox VM but the Maven build fails because of out-of-memory problems. I'm going to install Ubuntu as dual boot in the coming days (and upgrade my RAM eventually).
For the time being, could you point me to a similar protocol implementation in the codebase? I am highly interested in this project and potentially crafting a Proposal for it. The idea of reading RFCs and producing well-tested implementations sounds appealing to me.
I am an undergraduate Computer Science student at the University of Western Ontario just finishing my 4th year (coming back for a 5th to finish a major in Genetics). I have experience with Java in an academic setting for about 6 years and I have also written Java in my Summer of Code project last year.
Thanks,
Shrumit

> Key: JAMES-1933
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1933
> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Matthieu Baechler
> Labels: asciidoc, backend, docker, frontend, gsoc2017, java, js, json, rest, sse
>
> James aims at becoming a leading email solution in the next few years.
> For that to become real, we need to ensure all protocols related to email delivery security are well implemented.
> Today, the protocols are (at least) :
> * SPF
> * DKIM
> * DMARC
> There's already some code about these features in James but we would be sure people interested into James email hosting can configure this protocols easily and that implementations are compatible with most big email providers out there.
> To handle this project, the student have to know enough java to manage James codebase and be confortable in reading RFC and dissecting protocols.
> The James team has a strong focus on testing because email is a serious matter and you would not want to loose user's emails, so we will explain how to work on these tasks with the right testing strategy and tools.
> Finally, this project should conclude with a well-written asciidoc documentation about how one should deploy james with security features configured
