hi,
If more than one email address is used then how will the server side code [Listening Thread] operate?
In that case when the Listener starts up the email addresses and details [i.e. user names, passwords, server, etc.] should have to be retrieved from the services [?!]. And then it has to pole multiple email addresses. I guess on the mailet scenario this will not be a problem, but if some one wants to use a generic mail server to setup a service then that will be a problem in my opinion [at least :) ].

Hi, Yes I agree that this is a broader issue than just the SOAPAction. The algorithm you suggest seems to be fair enough for service resolution. However I suppose we should look more into what others are doing (afterall its not only axis that is there in the world :)) and decide the alternate branches of our service/operation resolution algorithm depending on that.

Let me extend the Q bit .. as it is not only the SMTP that bring the Q
At the web services we need to identify two things 1) Service Name 2) Operation name
to obtain the information we have the following 1) To address, (if the address not presents the request URI for HTTP and the mail address for the SMTP case ) 2) SOAP actions 3) if rpc-* or doc-literal-wrapped from the SOAP message
we want to handle this for (at least) SMTP & HTTP each of these can have a separator to have two information. I purpose the following algorithm to
1 try to get the service name from the To address.. that is basically find string $A in the To address that Marches the patters */services/$A 2.1 if 1 is success, if (style == rpc || wrapped){ find the operation from the Envelope } if(style == doc){ pick the operation name from the SOAPAction } 2.2. if 1failed, try to pick up the service from the SOAP action. Then the style must be rpc or doc literal wrapped as no way to find operation
Does the algorithm is fair enough?
few issues are 1) do we need escape characters in the to addess or the SOAPAction to let one entry have two information? 2) Are going to use the things like NSURI of the firat element to locate service/operation 3) do we need configuration support to change the order of the things taking the precedence.

hi all,
Well let me start by telling how I have setup the mail transport code for the time being. [Currently working on a maillet that can work with James.]
There is a poling thread that listens to a specified mail address and when a mail comes to that address it will be fetched; broken down; MC made and this MC will be used to call the engine.receive(MC) method.
My problem is that since it is required to set a REQUEST_URI (which will be used to find out the service that should be called) before calling engine.receive(MC), what can I use to set this?
Using the email address might cause a problem because then for different services the mail listener will have to listen to many email address. Before the current change I set the service using a value stored on the mail header.
