[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-553) [GSoC] Create an Email
connector for Apache ManifoldCF
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-553?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13824008#comment-13824008 ]
Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-553:
----------------------------------------
The ported code does not work; after fixing up the check() method to print out the exception text, it is apparent that we are getting the following exception:
Connection failed: Error checking the connection: Unable to locate provider for protocol: pop3
It seems like we may be missing a jar or two - or we need to force a protocol implementation to be registered by the connector. Does anyone have any insight here?

> Apache ManifoldCF is an effort to provide an open source framework for connecting source content repositories like Microsoft Sharepoint and EMC Documentum, to target repositories or indexes, such as Apache Solr, Open Search Server, or ElasticSearch. Apache ManifoldCF also defines a security model for target repositories that permits them to enforce source-repository security policies.
> ManifoldCF is based on a framework structure that allows developers to implement new connectors for repositories, search servers and authorities servers [1].
> Proposal:
> Implement an email connector that should support both IMAP and POP3 servers as well as SSL/TLS encryption and server certificates.
> Skills needed:
> - Java programming
> - IMAP and POP protocols
> - XML
