Joachim Draeger commented on JAMES-461: --------------------------------------- No, it isn't necessary to patch javamail. I don't think it's a big problem to contribute that few, little but powerful methods to javamaildir. The problem is how to access that methods because javamail nonsensically doesn't offer such an interface (UIDPlusFolder). (But using that methods in the class IMAPFolder) I'm not willing to accept this seeming insuperable borders between Apache and GPL. There is a good java implementation of maildir, we should use it. In a worst case we could use reflection to avoid strong dependencies. To clarify the original problem: When you store a mail in a javamail Folder, a copy get's stored and it is not possible to find that copy again. So this doesn't fit in James MailStore contract. > Maildir support > --------------- > > Key: JAMES-461 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-461 > Project: James > Type: New Feature > Components: MailStore & MailRepository > Reporter: Norman Maurer > Fix For: 2.4.0 > Attachments: JavamailStoreMailRepository.java, MaildirMailRepository.java, > MaildirMailRepository.java, UIDPlusFolderMailRepository1.zip > > Add Maildir support.. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
