+  <section name="Database Configuration">
+  
+    <p>James has the capacity to use a JDBC-compatible database for storage of both message and user 
+    data.  This section explains how to configure James to utilize a database for storage.</p>
+    
+    <subsection name="Requirements">
+    
+      <p>Using James with a database backend has certain requirements.  Database configuration is 
+      extremely vendor-specific, so we can only state the requirements in general terms.</p>
+      <p>There must be a database instance accessible from the James server.  An account with appropriate
+      privileges (select, insert, delete into tables, and on initial startup creation of tables) and
+      with sufficient quota for the data to be inserted into the database must be available.  Also,
+      since James will use JDBC to access the database, an appropriate JDBC driver must be 
+      available for installation.</p>
+      <p>It is important to verify the functionality of the database before attempting to configure 
+      James to use it as a repository.  This will help ensure that configuration issues are properly
+      identified.</p>
+      
+    </subsection>
+    
+    <subsection name="Connection Configuration">
+    
+      <p>Configuring the Phoenix container to work with JDBC is the first step in enabling James database support.</p>
+      <p>First, Phoenix must be able to load the JDBC classes.  To make these classes available to Phoenix, place the 
+      jar/zip files for the JDBC driver in the lib subdirectory of the James installation directory.  Any additional 
+      libraries upon which the JDBC library depends that are not part of the standard Java distribution should also be
+      added to this directory.</p>
+      <p>Second, the config.xml must be modified so that Phoenix initializes the database connections.  The relevant 
+      configuration is in the database-connections block.  The database-connections tag has only a single child tag, 
+      data-sources.  This latter tag is a simple container tag for a number of child elements.  It is these child 
+      elements, <strong>data-source</strong> elements, that define the database connections.</p>
+      <p>Each <strong>data-source</strong> tag has a required attribute, <strong>name</strong>.  This value 
+      must be unique to each <strong>data-source</strong> element.  It is this <strong>name</strong> that will 
+      be used to specify the database connection in other parts of the config.xml file.</p>
+      <p>The <strong>data-source</strong> element has five children, all of whom are required.
+      <ul>
+      <li><strong>driver</strong> - The class name of the database driver to be used.</li>
+      <li><strong>dburl</strong> - The JDBC connection URL for your database/driver.</li>
+      <li><strong>user</strong> - The user id of the database account to be used by this connection.</li>
+      <li><strong>password</strong> - The password of the database account to be used by this connection.</li>
+      <li><strong>max</strong> - The maximum number of JDBC connections to be used concurrently by this data-source.</li>
+      </ul>
+      </p>
+      <p>Generally, you simply configure these entries in the config.xml
+      file, which are commented, in order to use a database with James.  You
+      would then use the db: or dbfile: prefix instead of the file: prefix
+      for a particular repository.  You are currently free to mix and match
+      your use of these different storage types for different repositories.
+      See <a href="repositories.html">Repository Configuration</a> for
+      more details.  A sample configuration is described below.</p>
+    
+    </subsection>
+    
+    <subsection name="SQL Statement Configuration">
+    
+      <p>The precise SQL statements used by James to modify and view data stored in the database are specified in
+      an external configuration file.  The sqlResources.xml file 
+      (which can be found in the apps/james/conf directory) is a sample configuration file that contains the SQL
+      statements used by James.  The purpose of each of these statements, as well as the repository with which 
+      they are associated, is documented in situ.</p>
+      
+      <p>If you are using a SQL database with unusual SQL commands or data types, you may
+      need to add special entries to this file.  The James team
+      does try to keep sqlResources.xml updated, so if you do run into a
+      special case, please let us know.</p>
+      
+      <p>Also, if the database tables are not created a priori, but rather are to be created by James
+      upon startup, special attention should be paid to the "create table" statements in this file.  Such
+      statements tend to be both very database and very database instance specific.</p>
+    </subsection>
+    
+    <subsection name="Sample James Configuration">
+    
+      <p>The config.xml file has commented out examples for MySQL and
+      MSSQL data sources, and for each of the standard repositories.  For
+      example, to use MySQL, you would uncomment and adjust the following
+      data-source element.</p>
+      
+      <p>You must create the database, in this case named
+      <strong>mail</strong>, the user, and assign the user privileges.
+      You may create the tables before running James or, if you so choose, James 
+      will automatically create the tables it needs.  In the latter case the user 
+      must have table creation privileges.</p>
+      
+      <source>
+&lt;data-source name="maildb" class="org.apache.james.util.mordred.JdbcDataSource"&gt;
+  &lt;driver&gt;com.mysql.jdbc.Driver&lt;/driver&gt;
+  &lt;dburl&gt;jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/mail&lt;/dburl&gt;
+  &lt;user&gt;username&lt;/user&gt;
+  &lt;password&gt;password&lt;/password&gt;
+  &lt;max&gt;20&lt;/max&gt;
+&lt;/data-source&gt;
+      </source>
+      
+      <p>Once the data-source element has been created, it can be referenced elsewhere in the config.xml 
+      file.  For example, the following element tells James to use the maildb data-source and dbfile 
+      storage mechanism for the message spool:</p>
+      
+      <source>
+&lt;spoolRepository&gt;
+   &lt;repository destinationURL="dbfile://maildb/spool/spool" type="SPOOL"/&gt;
+&lt;/spoolRepository&gt;
+      </source>
+      
+      <p>The following element tells James to store mailboxes in a the maildb data-source:</p>
+      
+      <source>
+&lt;inboxRepository&gt;
+   &lt;repository destinationURL="db://maildb/inbox/" type="MAIL"/&gt;
+&lt;/inboxRepository&gt;
+      </source>
+      
+      <p>The configuration file contains further examples.</p>
+      
+    </subsection>
+    
+    <subsection name="Known Issues">
+    
+      <p>There are some vendor-specific subtleties in using databases with James that have been observed 
+      by some users.  These issues (and methods to resolve them) are recorded on the 
+      <a href="../FAQ.html">James FAQ</a> as they are reported.  Please consult the FAQ if you encounter any

+      send mail.</p>
+      <p>Of course it is also necessary to confirm that users and log in and send

-      <p>Verify that you have not inadvertantly configured your server as an open relay. This is most easily 
-      accomplished by using the service provided at <a href="http://www.ordb.org">ORDB.org</a>.  ORDB.org will 
-      check your mail server and inform you if it is an open relay.</p>
-      <p>It is extremely important that your server not be configured as an open relay.  Aside from potential 
-      costs associated with usage by spammers, connections from servers that are determined to be open relays 
-      are routinely rejected by SMTP servers.  This can severely impede the ability of your mail server to 
-      send mail.</p>
-      <p>Of course it is also necessary to confirm that users and log in and send 
-      mail through your server.  This can be accomplished using any standard mail client (i.e. Outlook, 
-      Eudora, Evolution).</p>

-  <section name="Database Configuration">
-  
-    <p>James has the capacity to use a JDBC-compatible database for storage of both message and user 
-    data.  This section explains how to configure James to utilize a database for storage.</p>
-    
-    <subsection name="Requirements">
-      <p>Using James with a database backend has certain requirements.  Database configuration is 
-      extremely vendor-specific, so we can only state the requirements in general terms.</p>
-      <p>There must be a database instance accessible from the James server.  An account with appropriate
-      privileges (select, insert, delete into tables, and on initial startup creation of tables) and
-      with sufficient quota for the data to be inserted into the database must be available.  Also,
-      since James will use JDBC to access the database, an appropriate JDBC driver must be 
-      available for installation.</p>
-      <p>It is important to verify the functionality of the database before attempting to configure 
-      James to use it as a repository.  This will help ensure that configuration issues are properly
-      identified.</p>
-    </subsection>
-    
-    <subsection name="Connection Configuration">
-      <p>Configuring the Phoenix container to work with JDBC is the first step in enabling James database support.</p>
-      <p>First, Phoenix must be able to load the JDBC classes.  To make these classes available to Phoenix, place the 
-      jar/zip files for the JDBC driver in the lib subdirectory of the James installation directory.  Any additional 
-      libraries upon which the JDBC library depends that are not part of the standard Java distribution should also be
-      added to this directory.</p>
-      <p>Second, the config.xml must be modified so that Phoenix initializes the database connections.  The relevant 
-      configuration is in the database-connections block.  The database-connections tag has only a single child tag, 
-      data-sources.  This latter tag is a simple container tag for a number of child elements.  It is these child 
-      elements, <strong>data-source</strong> elements, that define the database connections.</p>
-      <p>Each <strong>data-source</strong> tag has a required attribute, <strong>name</strong>.  This value 
-      must be unique to each <strong>data-source</strong> element.  It is this <strong>name</strong> that will 
-      be used to specify the database connection in other parts of the config.xml file.</p>
-      <p>The <strong>data-source</strong> element has five children, all of whom are required.
-      <ul>
-      <li><strong>driver</strong> - The class name of the database driver to be used.</li>
-      <li><strong>dburl</strong> - The JDBC connection URL for your database/driver.</li>
-      <li><strong>user</strong> - The user id of the database account to be used by this connection.</li>
-      <li><strong>password</strong> - The password of the database account to be used by this connection.</li>
-      <li><strong>max</strong> - The maximum number of JDBC connections to be used concurrently by this data-source.</li>
-      </ul>
-      </p>
-      <p>Generally, you simply configure these entries in the config.xml
-      file, which are commented, in order to use a database with James.  You
-      would then use the db: or dbfile: prefix instead of the file: prefix
-      for a particular repository.  You are currently free to mix and match
-      your use of these different storage types for different repositories.
-      See <a href="repositories.html">Repository Configuration</a> for
-      more details.  A sample configuration is described below.</p>

+    <subsection name="Making TLS/SSL Server Sockets Available Inside James">
     
-    <subsection name="SQL Statement Configuration">
+      <p>James uses the Sun Java Secure Sockets Extension (JSSE) infrastructure to provide TLS/SSL 
+      sockets.  JSSE comes packaged with several vendor Java distributions (i.e. Sun Java 1.4.x, 
+      IBM Java 1.3.x).  For these distributions, please follow the vendor provided instructions for
+      configuring the JVM to use JSSE services.</p>
+      
+      <p>If you are using a Java distribution that does not include JSSE as part of the 
+      distribution you will need to download the JSSE package separately.  It can be obtained from 
+      <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/jsse">here</a>.  Please follow Sun's instructions for installation 
+      and configuration of JSSE.</p>
+      <p>In either case, you will need to statically define a JSSE TLS provider.  In general, this 
+      is the default installation.</p>
+      <p>Once you've installed JSSE, James still needs to be configured to take advantage of the JSSE
+      functionality.</p>
     
-      <p>The precise SQL statements used by James to modify and view data stored in the database are specified in
-      an external configuration file.  The sqlResources.xml file 
-      (which can be found in the apps/james/conf directory) is a sample configuration file that contains the SQL
-      statements used by James.  The purpose of each of these statements, as well as the repository with which 
-      they are associated, is documented in situ.</p>
-      
-      <p>If you are using a SQL database with unusual SQL commands or data types, you may
-      need to add special entries to this file.  The James team
-      does try to keep sqlResources.xml updated, so if you do run into a
-      special case, please let us know.</p>
-      
-      <p>Also, if the database tables are not created a priori, but rather are to be created by James
-      upon startup, special attention should be paid to the "create table" statements in this file.  Such
-      statements tend to be both very database and very database instance specific.</p>

-    <subsection name="Sample James Configuration">
+    <subsection name="Certificate Keystores">
     
-      <p>The config.xml file has commented out examples for MySQL and
-      MSSQL data sources, and for each of the standard repositories.  For
-      example, to use MySQL, you would uncomment and adjust the following
-      data-source element.</p>
-      
-      <p>You must create the database, in this case named
-      <strong>mail</strong>, the user, and assign the user privileges.
-      You may create the tables before running James or, if you so choose, James 
-      will automatically create the tables it needs.  In the latter case the user 
-      must have table creation privileges.</p>
-      
-      <source>

-      </source>
-      
-      <p>Once the data-source element has been created, it can be referenced elsewhere in the config.xml 
-      file.  For example, the following element tells James to use the maildb data-source and dbfile 
-      storage mechanism for the message spool:</p>
-      
-      <source>
-      &lt;spoolRepository&gt;

-      &lt;/spoolRepository&gt;
-      </source>
-      
-      <p>The following element tells James to store mailboxes in a the maildb data-source:</p>
-      
-      <source>
-      &lt;inboxRepository&gt;
-         &lt;repository destinationURL="db://maildb/inbox/" type="MAIL"/&gt;
-      &lt;/inboxRepository&gt;

+    <p>After unpacking the binary, the next step is to adjust the initial configuration.  
+       The most configuration files reside in the ./conf directory.</p>
+    
+    <p>The out of the box configuration makes certain assumptions and has some default 
+       values that are unlikely to be appropriate for real-world servers. 
+       There are a few issues that should be addressed immediately upon installation:</p>
+      <ul>
+        <li>RemoteManager Administrator Account - Before the RemoteManager service can be used to add users to this server 
+            installation an administrator account must be created.  More information can be found <a href="config-remotemanager.html">here</a>.</li>
+        <li>DNS Servers - James needs to have access to a DNS server for domain resolution.  The out of the box 
+            configuration assumes that there is a DNS server on localhost.  In general administrators will have to change 
+           the configuration to point to a valid DNS server.  This can be done by adjusting the dnsserver configuration 
+           block in the config.xml.  More information can be found <a href="config-serverwide.html">here</a>.</li>
+        <li>Managed Domain Names/IP Addresses - Out of the box, James only handles mail that is sent to recipients at 
+           localhost.  It will attempt to deliver all other email to remote SMTP servers.  To allow James to handle email 
+           for your domain or IP address, you simply need to add the appropriate domain name or IP address to the servernames 
+           section of the config.xml.  More information can be found <a href="config-serverwide.html">here</a>.</li>
+        <li>Postmaster Address - More information can be found <a href="config-serverwide.html">here</a>.</li>
+      </ul>
     
-  <p>After installing the binary, the next step is to adjust the initial configuration.  The server should be stopped, and then 
-     configuration can proceed.  The most essential configuration is set in the config.xml file.  This file can be 
-     found in the apps/james/SAR-INF subdirectory of the installation directory.</p>

-    edit the configuration (thereafter *nix users can run the server in the background 
-    using ./run.sh &amp;). For basic use, you only need to set two items in the 
-    JAMES.conf.xml file: a root password for the remote administration facility

+James is packaged with no virtual hosting, xml domain list and JPA (Derby database) storage for the mails.
+You can edit the following files to change the behaviour:
+
+- Enable virtual hosting in mailserver.xml: vi mailserver.xml
+  &lt;enableVirtualHosting&gt; true &lt;/enableVirtualHosting&gt;
+
+- Replace the XMLDomainList with the JPADomainList: vi usersrepository.xml
+  &lt;domainlist class="org.apache.james.domainlist.jpa.JPADomainList"&gt;
+    &lt;autodetect&gt;true&lt;/autodetect&gt;
+    &lt;autodetectIP&gt;true&lt;/autodetectIP&gt;
+  &lt;/domainlist&gt;
+
+- Edit the database.properties and change the values according to your database.
+- If you don't forget to add the needed jdbc driver jar in the ./conf/lib folder.
