JAMES Version 2.0a1 released!

JAMES Version 2.0a1 is now available at http://jakarta.apache.org/james/.


There is very little documentation in this release, but it is significantly
faster and is (hopefully) more stable than 1.2.1.  If you are familiar with
JAMES, we encourage you to try it out and let us know what you think.  We
will be resolving known issues and adding features before final release
including:
- regex matchers
- classloading (support loading mailets/matchers from apps/lib directory)
- removing experimental IMAP from default configuration
- better messages and handling of configuration problems
- graceful mailet shutdown
- documentation


Many changes and contributions went into this new release.  Here is a long
list of what changes we were able to write down:
- Moved to Avalon snapshot of 9-25-2001.
- Added NNTP service.
- SMTP AUTH support
- Support null senders, i.e., MAIL RCPT: <>
- Converted Town mail and user repositories to straight JDBC ones, using
Excalibur connection pooling and configurable SQL statements per DB.
- Messages are no longer loaded until absolutely necessary.
- Fixed exception being thrown on MailAddress parsing.
- Rebuilt CVS tree after hack and moved src to src/java.
- Added a whole bunch of related RFCs to the webdocs.
- Add date to bounced emails.
- Updated DNS library and started process to move it to Avalon service.
- More checks to fix "stuck file" problem in Avalon mail repository.
- Limit the size of a message on reception (rather than waiting until
processors).
- Fixed dot-stuffing in SMTP reception/delivery.
- Improved how Return-Path and Received headers are generated during SMTP
reception.
- More efficient remote delivery code, better error messages, and gateway
parameter to route all messages to a single target.
- Fixed timezone bug in RFC822DateFormat
- Patch to support username@[yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy] addresses
- Patch to fix size calculation from headers

The basic services on in James are in separate blocks, eg. DNS,
RemoteManager, repositories, and the protocol services(SMTP, POP3, NNTP,
IMAP).  Splitting into blocks does work, otherwise nothing would work. I
used to run James for a long time with POP3 and POP3S, as well as SMTP and
SMTP Secure. I will verify again.

In 1.2 all this was one large 'James' block. This was the change I was
referring to. POP3 was an example. It may be interesting to highlight this
increase in blocks in 2.1.
This information should be useful to anyone who converts from 1.2
config/install.

I'll look into the specific case of 0 POP3 Blocks.

Harmeet,

Are you sure this works though?  Right now you can't have zero POP3 blocks
running (meaning, you can't disable POP3), so I kind of figure from the same
problem it would prevent multiple POP3 blocks from running.

I think it would be useful to mention that James Service are now broken up
in blocks, and one can have more than one Service Implementation in one
James instance.

This is particularly useful, if one wants to have both POP3 and POP3-Secure
running at the same time. This feature should make James more interesting
for users and also promote reuse of blocks.

I would be happy to make changes to changelist etc, but I am out in the
boondocks. The best I can do at present is make a suggestion or two. This
work was done a bit later than NNTP Service. Would be good to add to the
changelist.

Hi, Christopher, and everyone,

I also had similar problems with the pop server, even
before even trying mysql or sapdb (the former
is the RDBMS I intend to use with James).
It seems that commands "stat" or "list"
provoke a java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String
I posted the following message to james-user:

----------------------------------
Hello,

I am using Linux jdk1.3.1 as my JVM, and the latest
official release of james.
When user mailboxes are  empty, I can succesfully
telnet to port 110, and use the stat and list commands.
But when I have one or two messages in any mailbox, any stat or list
command provokes a java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String
Any help?
Thanks a lot.

Here are the logs from pop3server.log:

Peter, thanks for the instructions on Jakarta documentation upload. Should
be able to do it next time.

Onto next item I found ;)

NNTP server seems to be ignoring the "control: cancel <12...@blah>" header 
attributes. (which from what I understand tells the server to cancel that 
message completely and not send it out anymore).

James also does not understand the "superscedes: " attribute.

In the long run - yep ;) It makes it easier to determine whether you want to 
subscribe to group or not.

Glad to hear that, but I think there is still a problem with KNode on Linux.
I have the patch for KNode problem and will check it in tonight.

I think we are getting close. If we can get all apache email on James NNTP
via Rhys server, we would surely get over all the teething issues, plus it
will be a good for James.

There was a problem with NEWGROUPS command. I think it has been fixed.
Also, added a system property to help debug the protocol.
With the latest cvs code, if System property
apache.nntpserver.debug==true
then a lot of output is written into the nntp specific log file.

I have updated news.kodemuse.com with cvs code and
apache.nntpserver.debug==true. Rhys you may want to do get the fixes in
NNTPHandler.java from CVS and if you want set apache.nntpserver.debug==true
in the run script

Haven't tried the 'New Groups' option in KNode yet. (Access problem.) Hope
to that soon.
'New Groups' command seems to work with python nntplib, so I have some
confidence.

I have wiped out the repository. It may be a good idea to wipe the news
server and create a new one. There may be cached articles from earlier
repository.
news.kodemuse.com is not a hard name, If you like you can choose
news1.kodemuse.com as the server name.

> Also can James specify descriptions for newsgroups ?
James cannot specify the description. Group description cannot be read from
the config.xml or stored in repository.
But the protocol server, does return the description. The description
returned for a group is the same as name of a group.
It is probably a little bit of work to add description, but not too much.
Do you think it would be a good thing to do ?

Harmeet

Okay. Getting news by ID works now ;)

However on both yours and Rhys's servers respond with "501 Syntax Error" when 
I do try "New Groups" option in KNode. Get to it via 

Account/Subscribe to Newsgroups/New Groups

Also I was still intermittently getting not found errors when looking up 
articles by ID. I will see if I can reproduce it better. 

Also can James specify descriptions for newsgroups ?

unfortunately, he has decided that he "should give back to the community"

there are at least three dsl connections hooked up 24x7. (nevermind the

Fixed bugs in this area. Latest NNTP code in the server seems to work with
KNode on Linux.

I have an NNTP Server running on news.kodemuse.com. It would be helpful if
someone could try it out with KNode and other clients. I will update the
code as bugs are found and fixed.
Secure NNTP is at port 563.
news.kodemuse.com functions as a test sandbox. It does not not host Apache
mailing lists.

I will be able to play with KDE+Linix Environment on Monday. Will try it
then.

I tried test the commands with nntplib in python. That seemed to work ok.

There was a problem with getting NNTP Headers, HDR and XHDR headers. Fixed
it.
I tried to reproduce fetching the article from articleID problem, but could
not reproduce.

What Client library are you using ? I would like to reproduce the problem
with latest code.

Are there any articles in the group you are fetching information from ?

draft-ietf-nntpext-base-13.txt in section 9.1.1.1 says
----------------------------------
            If the group is empty, one of the following three situations
            will occur. Clients MUST accept all three cases; servers MUST
            NOT represent an empty group in any other way.

               . The high water mark will be one less than the low water
                 mark, and the estimated article count will be zero.
                 Servers SHOULD use this method to show an empty group.
                 This is the only time that the high water mark can be
                 less than the low water mark.
               . All three numbers will be zero.
               . The high water mark is greater than or equal to the low
                 water mark; the estimated article count might be zero or
                 non-zero; if non-zero, the same requirements apply as for
                 a non-empty group.
----------------------------------

Is it possible that the group is empty and client is expecting the server
response in one of the three possible ways.
For empty group NTTP Server currently sends back:
b. lowWaterMark == highWaterMark == NumberOfSrticles == 0

i put together an email to news bridge mailet, my first successful

maybe the default compilation should not delete the dist/app/james

good morning!

this machine's name is news.dyxn.net and articles are in newsgroups
org.apache.jakarta.*
in my config.xml:
articleIDPath is the default /var/nntp/articleid
articleIDDomainSuffix is news.dyxn.net

i like the "bridge" idea. i'll be the guinea pig.
there are different names when comparing the cvs projects and the email
lists.
just use the email lists verbatim?


btw, jakarta at dyxn.net is subscribed to *all* jakarta lists as a proof (to
me)  that the smtp and pop are reliable under real traffic for an extended
period of time. the whole server locks up if my client lets too many files
accumulate. i have to delete files manually in the jakarta inbox to restore
functionality.

Hi,

just had a play around with thing. I noticed that for some reason you can't 
grab articles by ID. ie Trying to get something by

1493464959.1004188299157.1@news.james.apache.org

returns a "430 no such article" response however it shows up fine when 
download new. Someone wanna figure out whats going on there ? ;)

Also Rhys I could not see any Avalon mail being fed into newsgroups - is this 
expected? If not this would be a kool idea. What would be really fun would be 
a "bridge" mailet that detected responses on news group and forwarded to the 
mail group and vice versa ;)

hi all,

on the other hand,
"we believe in eating our own dogfood"

this is a ppro200 with 384MB ram and a 128Kbps outbound static ip DSL
running James from cvs.

the machine and connection have been stable for about a year.

James SMTP and POP have been running for most of that time receiving all of

Let's see if it can handle traffic. I'm open to any and all admin

Here is what I did to reproduce this:

1. Installed 2.0a1 from the tar file.
2. Started it up with run.bat
3. Changed the config file to use a mysql database for the inboxes. (see 
attached)
4. Telnet to 4555 and added a user cburkey with a password.
5. Sent an email to cburkey@localhost. It accepted the email. I looked in 
the mysql database and my email is in there. So far so good.
7. Tried to check my mail via pop3 and Eudora tells me:
"Error reading from the network    Cause: Connection closed by foreign 
host. (0)
There has been an error transferring your mail: I said:      STAT    and 
the POP server (cburkey@localhost) said: ERR Error closing connection"	
8. So I then tried to use Outlook Express to check the mail. There was no 
error reported but it also did not download my mail for me.
9. So I sent another email into the SMTP server and that is when I got the 
stack trace pasted above.


Looks like there is something wrong with the pop3 server. I did not see 
anything good in the log files. Can someone who has this working send me 
their config files?
