[ANN] James v2.2.0a10 Test Build
The James v2.2.0a10 test build is available at
http://cvs.apache.org/builds/james-server/test-build/.
Change in this test build from James v2.2.0a9 include:
* Added new FetchMail service, enhanced and backported
from the MAIN branch.
* Upgraded to dnsjava v1.4.0 form v1.3.2.
* Added support for mbox format repositories
* Added batch delete and better exception reporting to
mail repositories.
* Improved construction of MailImpl from MimeMessage.
However, code that has the correct information would
be better to avoid the MailImpl(MimeMessage) constructor.
* NEW JDBC Repositories will support mail attributes by
default. EXISTING JDBC repositories require a manual
upgrade of their table structure in order to take
advantage of Mail Attributes.
* Corrected resource leak in FetchPOP (but start to use
FetchMail, as FetchPOP is being deprecated).
The major enhancements are FetchMail and mbox support. The remainder are
mostly bug fixes.
Note for J2SE 1.3 users: this is the second test version of James that uses
DBCP by default. DBCP requires javax.sql.DataSource, so you may need to
either download and install the JDBC optional package binary from
http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc/download.html, or switch back to using
mordred. Many systems will already have this package installed.
Please test, and report any problems, anomalies, performance changes (good
or bad), etc.

What would it take to make this a non-alpha release? The shift from
2.1.X to 2.2.X is becoming huge (feature-wise).

Is there a way to setup sendmail to use smtp/SSL. I'm going to setup an
Extranet and SSL is required.
Thanks in advance,

Vincenzo,
Nice job. :-)
The page is much better. If you get a chance, you might flesh out the

Do you have anything more to elaborate on
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?James/UsingSSL? Do users who
have read that document have questions that they would like answered
regarding the deployment?
Personally, we use SSH tunneling to implement the same goal.

In fact, TLS/SSL support in James is useful for protecting POP3 and SMTP activity between James and a mail client like Outlook, where you can specify that "this server requires authentication" and the port numbers for both protocols. We use it for the internal communications in the company, to avoid internal sniffing of confidential messages.

Yes, everyone is trying to connect to port 25, and it is closed.
Changing a setting in James is not going to tell all the other mail
servers out there to connect on a non-standard/encrypted port. SSL
isn't accepted for ad-hoc SMTP server-server communication... just
client-server or specific server-server setups.

James, SSL and outside-world server
Posted by Webmaster <we...@wolf.homelinux.net>.
Hello,
I tried to swich to SSL (POP3 and SMTP) - set all as documented, pop3 at 995
and smtp at 465 (with authorization) - everything went ok, but worked only
LOCALLY.
It means - I send and receive maile within my domain, could send mails to
the outside world, but COULDN'T receive mail from outside world.
It turned out that when I created additional "plain" smtp service at port
25, I suddenly started to receive mails from the outside world.
Could someone tell me what is going on?
Regards

(a) The above is wrong. The default was accidently left out of v2.2.0a10,
so
you need to uncomment some statements in sqlResources.xml to enable it.
