Explain the email transport? That’s very interesting to me.
It's pretty much like it sounds. It allows SOAP calls to be made via Email rather than HTTP. It allows the JBoss.net server to lie completely inside a corporate firewall without any direct access to the internet, but still handle rmi calls via email through say the corporate email server.
The Email transport in and of itself isn't terribly interesting, but once combined with Web Service Security (public key encryption/authentication) it becomes a very powerful tool even in environments with the most draconian restrictions.

So I do a lot of JBoss training and when I'm not doing that I'm working on making JBoss a kick-ass email server so that no one ever has to use exchange or domino again. I often wonder what the quiet folks are doing that is cool with JBoss.
I just managed to get an email transport for JBoss.net working! I'll commit it as soon as I am sure it doesn't break anything :-) watch for the org.jboss.net.axis.transport.mail packages in the next day or so.
It currently only works with unsecured services, but I'm also working
on integrating web service security via wss4j so that SOAP services can
be truly locked down no matter which transports they use.
