Access James mails using Web Services

Hi Team,

I have this unique requirement to use Web Service interface for
sending/deleting/querying emails in Apache James. Do we have these
interfaces already available in some module or we need to build?

I will use an email, username and password to perform these operations.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Sai

Hello Eric,

Thank you for the inputs.
I would like to consider REST + CXF + Spring approach. Keep you all posted
on further developments.

Thank you,
Sai

Hi Sai,

James doesn't have Web Service interfaces (nor WSDL, nor REST), so one 
has to build it (it has been asked a few times, so it would be used for 
sure).

The first think to do is to define the API (WSDL or REST), a home for 
that module (e.g. james-server-protocols-wsdl or 
james-server-protocols-rest), the frameworks to use (e.g. CXF), build 
the server class skeleton where you will inject the neeed beans 
(@Resource(name = "mailboxmanager") and Resource(name = 
"mailboxmanager")) and add this server class to the spring context (CXF 
plays nice with Spring).

Thx, Eric
