[jira] [Created] (JAMES-3278) Simplify POP3 Configuration
David Leangen created JAMES-3278:
------------------------------------
Summary: Simplify POP3 Configuration
Key: JAMES-3278
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3278
Project: James Server
Issue Type: Sub-task
Reporter: David Leangen
In the context of the *Basic Server*, it has been decided (ref??) that POP3 will be an included feature, but will be disabled by default.
The current mechanism by which POP3 is configured is questionable in this context because:
* It exposes a lot of technical details that are not appropriate for a Basic Operator
* It seems to require a lot of unnecessary configurations (to be discussed)
* It mixes in the security (SSL) concern, which is another large and important issue
* It is in XML 🤮
We should determine how this configuration can be made more "Operator-friendly".
Â
(Note: we do not expect to work on this immediately. This is more of a placeholder for later work once an initial version of the Basic Server has been released.)
