Possibly, but one of my prime requirements is to ease the transition between v2 & v3. The way I've done it so far means that everything should be forwards and backwards compatible. If I don't do this then we will alienate many of our current users. However it may be that when v3 ships it does so with the JavaMail repositories on by default. I'd prefer to get the IMAP stuff out of the door so I can help shape the mailet-api & v3 work much better rather than write another repository implementation. > > Stefano > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
