[jira] [Commented] (JAMES-1469) Save incoming Emails as .eml file
in Windows
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1469?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13551874#comment-13551874 ]
Eric Charles commented on JAMES-1469:
-------------------------------------
Maildir standard is not supported on Windows.
Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maildir (Filesystem compatibility)
Of course, we could have a mailbox-maildir-windows proprietary solution which would deal with those incompatibilities.
That module would depend on the mailbox-maildir one, overriding the classes which deal with the file naming.
We had recently some work on the MaildirMessageName with a nice contribution (MAILBOX-187)
Feel free to post here if you want directions to work.
Thx, Eric

> James is able to use maildir as Mailbox for incoming Emails on Unix like systems. My tests have shown that if i want to use this feature on a Windows box i get a lot of Exceptions. But the Email which was received is in the Temp directory of the mailbox and can be read.
> Is there any way for this to work on Windows? I mean since the temp file is already on the machine i thought maybe there is a workaround to get thin feature running on Windows.
> I would appreciate any help or hints regarding this matter.
> I think this feature for Windows in the James SMTP Server would be awesome and is definitly needed by a lot of users and companies.
