Is there a reason why JBoss Mail shouldn't adopt the Apache James Mailet / 
Matcher API?  It seems well documented and is a stable, well thought out API 
for e-mail workflow processing.

Honestly, I've looked at (am still looking at) James as an e-mail server 
solution for an upcoming project.  I suppose the main reason I haven't simply 
embraced James is its reliance on the now-defunct Avalon project.  I cringe at 
the thought of introducing yet-another server framework into my development and 
production environments!  J2EE, for all its flaws, is well known, mature, 
stable, and very well documented/supported.

I've been monitoring the JBoss effort, but am not at all clear that it's not 
going to ask me to don a different style straight jacket than James wants me to 
wear.  The talks about relying on BeanShell or JavaScript to process e-mails 
handled by my Java-based e-mail server is an example of such a straight jacket.

To more fully discuss these issues, I'm posting a new topic on "What I'm 
Looking For, And Not looking For, In A Java-Based Enterprise E-mail Server"
