running james as non-root

So I have to run James as a non-root process on Solaris. Binding to port
25 is a problem.

I was wondering how other James users have solved this. If I was in
Linux I'd just use iptables but that is not an option with Solaris.

Thanks for any help!

If you can't port forward, it isn't an option, unless we figure out how to
use Commons Daemon to start JAMES.  Commons Daemon supports starting as
root, and then switching to a non-privileged user.
