[Proposal] FetchPOP --> Fetch
Hi guys,
After an email exchange with Leo, we would like to work on a new version of
FetchPOP in the proposals area and then move it into a futur release of
James when it is ready.
One of the main goals is to make full use of JavaMail so that we can take
advatage of the various Javamail service providers.
We would also like to rename FetchPOP to something else, maye just call it
Fetch.
Thanks,
Sergei

A lot:)
I'd like to provide ML archive via nntp, read-only. Because the search
engine can return news url.

Hey Guys,
Just wondering what is happening with the new Fetch[Message|Mail|Whatever]
service. I was under the impression that it was coming soon, and included
Sergei's changes, so I didn't merge Sergei's patch to FetchPOP.
As you've likely seen on the mailing list, discussion seems to be converging
on using JavaMail for message stores, so between the fetcher, IMAP and the
message stores, we should be seeing a lot more use of JavaMail in James. I
just wrote an e-mail to Chris Burdess asking about his JavaMail providers.
So if this thing is reasonable stable, I'd like to see about getting it into
HEAD. People who need the really stable tested code should be living out of
the v2.1 branch, anyway, right now.
By the way, please take a look at this message on james-user@ from Sami
Siren, who packaged a fetch for DAV mail:
http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=james-user@jakarta.apach
e.org&msgId=548521
Seems to me that you'd want to subsume that code and config into the general
fetcher service.

Hi All,
I am happy to move the new version to proposals (and provide instructions).
Is was planning on doing something similar to the imap/imap2 implementation
in proposals (with docs). Would this be acceptable?
I have tried Yahoo (works fine), a couple of third party POP implementations
(the javamail one does not allow the SEEN flag to be set) as well as mbox...
All these seemed to work fine... Extensive testing needs to be done on this
module but the basics *seem* to work...
I was also thinking about FetchMail. The one thing that tripped me up is
that there is an nntp transport available... I thought someone could use
this as a "news feeder" as well... Any thoughts?

Serge,
Are you prepared to provide instructions to people on how to do a James
build that has Fetch in proposals/?
How stable is the revised version? Have you tried using any of the third
party service providers, e.g., the ones for Yahoo and Hotmail?
As for the name, I was kind of leaning towards something a bit more
descriptive, e.g., FetchMail, but more generic than FetchPOP.
