No. If you want to use the internal James API, the best thing would be to
look at the source for the RemoteManager, and see what it does.
Alternatively, if you are using JDBC, you might want to add the user
directly via JDBC.

Hi Jm,
I don't think there is a way to do it currently built into James. I just
wrote a class that did some JDBC work directly on the table and manage my
users like that.

Micael,
All it takes is time. Someone will have to want to do that tutorial, and
have the time to do it. The benefit of the Wiki is that our users can
author that sort of content collaboratively. We can later formalize it, and
post to the main web site.
What questions do you have regarding James at the moment?

I appreciated that. I don't want you to think I am complaining here. I
love the work you guys and gals have done and will be happy to contribute
when I get the time to get the basic ideas. Essentially, I have the same
difficulty most people have with unfamiliar territory. I know Java inside
and out, including pretty much the whole of the Java empire, but I don't
know James. It is pretty hard to step into new territory like this without
a picture of the forest. No complaints, just a fact. I would like to
contribute to a lot of these projects, but slowly have to see where they
are. Unfortunately, a lot of times they move faster than someone trying to
learn them can keep up. I will get there, I hope. I do think that James
has a lot of potential. I am presently trying to see how it works.

I was thinking of that, but I sent out several missives in the past and did
not get an answer. I would like to get a quickie introduction so I don't
have to waste a huge amount of time finding out where you are at. If I
have to do that, I just don't have the time. That usually is the problem
with the open source community. There are lots of people who would like to
help, but there is no easy entrance. It just takes too long to get up to
speed. So, for now, I don't. Maybe I will when I can take the time to get
the basics of what you have done.

If you did this, you would find, in my opinion, that James use would sky
rocket. This really should be the objective, if you want use to
increase. This, also, would not be too hard to do.

If we had ETRN support, we wouldn't need the 'always on' of a cable
modem, either.

As far as I know, Home Ec. majors can setup James out of the box right now.
Doing *more* with it, might be a different matter.
Actually, we are fairly close. What we would need is a setup document that
starts with the absolutely basics. Perhaps starting with someone who just
got a cable modem, and talks them through using one of the free Dynamic DNS
services to setup their own mail server.
In other words, something that talks about going to www.dyndns.org, setting
up a free account by following their directions, setting up an MX record,
setting up James with an account, and then testing e-mail reciept.
Start with a computer on broadband and end up with e-mail arriving at
user@userdom.dyndns.org.

Hi Noel,
I don't disagree at all. I just thought I would offer a few
possibilities so as not to give the impression that it was all too hard.
We seem to get a few of these school projects. (Might ne something to
do with James being free and running on windows.) If we can get to the
point where IT juniors straight out of school can set up James without
difficulty, that has got to be good for us.
Cheers

Agreed. But first the intent of the project needs to be clearly
stated/understood. From the initial post, there seemed to be confusion, as
if Tomcat and James were two components of the same server. Remember that
the requirement started with:

Regardless of all this, I would expect to be able to achieve your
requirements (apart from the searching of a POP3 mailbox) quite
comfortably within two weeks by downloading one of the webmail packages
from SourceForge (there are several).
Are you required to write the code yourself? If so, you have a fair bit
of work ahead of you, but it should be achievable.
Get James up and running first. Use Mozilla mail or any other mail
client as the client for testing. Once that works, get one webmail
packages from SourceForge. The thing to watch for here, is that last
time I looked (a couple of years ago, admittedly) most of these packages
were not written in java. (Perl and PHP seem to be prevalent.) This
will make it hard to get your web interface running in Tomcat (unless
you are writting your own). Consider using apache server rather than
tomcat if you need to run the non-java packages.
If you are writing your own, investigate the JavaMail API from java.sun.com.
Good luck

Tomcat is a web application server, James is a mail server. They are not
related.
> 1)user login session and goes to inbox page
"inbox page" sounds like webmail. James is not a web server. Users log
into a POP3 session, and use that protocol. If you need webmail, that's a
different application.
2)receiving emails
Again, POP3 protocol handles mail retrieval.
3)searching email in folders
POP3 doesn't support searching or folders. IMAP does, but James does't have
support for IMAP at this time.
