read mail from james account via cell-phone?
This isn't really a james specific question, but I'm hoping somebody has
tried this using james and may know a trick or two. I'm looking for a
way to read mail from a james account via a cell-phone, are there any
webmail type packages that can pop from james and have a WAP interface?
A more integrated solution would be better, like maybe a servlet that
could use the james API to serve mail. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Jay,
I work for a telco, writing the kind of software that you are talking
about. Unfortunately, I do not know of any packages that do what you
are after. As far as I am aware, telco's tend to have this stuff
written for them. (We certainly do.)
On the bright side, it ought to be relatively simple to modify an
existing web-mail package to produce WML output, rather than HTML. That
will allow you to browse your mail via your telco's HTTP/WAP gateway.
Cheers

I'm looking for a mail repository to have all my mail forwarded to so I
can read it on the road. I've tried using free services like hotmail
but with all the spam I get they fill up too quickly and start bouncing.
It occurred to me that I could just use my james server to receive mail
if I could then read it somehow.
SMS would be good, except my current cellphone plan charges me 10cents
per SMS message over the first 40. Before I realized this I spent a
fortune having all my spam forwarded to me.
Anyway, thanks for any help anyone can give me.

James and SMPP (was Re: read mail from james account via cell-phone?)
Posted by Aaron Knauf <ak...@xtra.co.nz>.
Hi Noel,
I would be interested to know what your interest is in SMPP (and how you
see it fitting in to JAMES). I am the principal developer for the SMS
server for the telco that I work for, so I have an interest there.
Unfortunately, I am extrremely busy right now, and probably for another
2-3 weeks (hence no progress on the JAMES JNDI front,) so I am unlikely
to be of any use right away. :-(
Cheers

Siraj,
It would be more appropriate to discuss development topics on james-dev,
rather than james-user. :-)
We have some good examples that you could use to model a service and
protocol handler. Also, I've recently put together a list of references on
SMPP.
Why don't subscribe to james-dev, and we can discuss it over there? :-)

Hi Noel,
I have implemented a Email2SMS gateway using James and
SMPP 3.4 spec.But i had to create an intermediate ESME
application which will take Email from James and send
them to SMSC. I didn't write the full implementation
as a james service, because:
1. Avalon Framework seemed very complicated and not
well documented(at least i couldn't find).
2. I didn't have much time to play with James and
Avalon :>.
But a service like SMS Push-Pull using james is
possible and is pretty easy. Just need to understand
Avalon in depth. Can u send me some URLs which might
be helpful?

Jay,
I don't know of any WAP compatible web mails. I was looking at SMPP over
the weekend, and it would be kind of interesting if someone did work to
support SMPP for James, but you sound as if you want more than SMS.
