You need the source. If you are going to build, you probably want to use
CVS, and copy the project out of the Jakarta CVS server. See the web-site

a mailet is a "plug-in" which extends the functionality of James.
please read the documentation at the site, FAQs and previous messages in
this user group.
a good start on the site is Documentation|Configuration|Mailets.
i'm not aware of any better documentation other than what's on the site.
you can also download the src and look at LocalDelivery.java as a good example.
good luck.

I don't understand very well what is mailet.... (i'm a newbie in James).
What can I do with it ?
How to create a new mailet ? Must I write it in the config.xml file ?

once you perform the calculation and determine that an incoming email will
exceed your space limit, call
mail.setState(Mail.GHOST)
to consume the mail.
if you want, you can even send a reply to the sender first.
in other words, you have to write a mailet. :-)

But how do you stop a new email in the server when the user has more than
the authorized limit ?

i needed this functionality also but couldn't find anything in James.
so i implemented myself in mailet by executing a "SUM(LENGTH(" query.
i did this every 10th email received (or so) for the mail account in question.
not pretty and not without effort.

I've sent messages with more than a hundred of files but the total message
size hasn't reached the limit I've set on config, i.e., the sum of file
sizes attached to the message was less than that set on config...
But I'd like to know about a mailbox size limit, too...

And this is not just for one message ?
The limit size of one file is 10Mbytes but how much files can I have ? This
is not limited ?

Well the SMTP server recieves and sends mail for the POP3 mailboxes. So

Look for this on config.xml:

in KBytes. The value defaults to 0, which means no limit. -->
<maxmessagesize>10000</maxmessagesize>

Can't be done at present.
The maxmessagesize won't limit the size of mailboxes, only the maximum size
of an individual message entering the system

Aiden,

This can be done by using the maxmessagesize parameter in the James
configuration under the SMTP server section.

You're referring to read and delivery receipts here.
Read receipts are a client generated phenomenon and interpreted
phenomenon. The sending client program (i.e. Microsoft Outlook)
attaches a header to request a receipt and the receiving client program
generates a reply. So in theory, and in the test I ran just now, that
all works.
Delivery receipts are another kettle of fish entirely. As I understand
it, delivery receipts are processed by the server. James doesn't do any
delivery receipt processing, and my recent test failed to elicit a
delivery receipt.
> 3. james is able to run as a service on windows?
Yep. Please see the FAQ on the James site. It describes the process of
setting up James to run as a service on Windows.

Another alternative is talked about a lot in the mail archives - look
through the James User mail archives for "javaservice". You need to get a
copy of the "javaservice" program - I just checked and the web site where
you download it seems to be down. If you can't get hold of the javaservice
program and want it, let me know and I'll check if I still have a copy at
work.
