Hi,

I am using James - pop3. Below are the steps i am using to retrieve the
mails from server:
Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
store.connect("localhost", userName, password);
inbox = store.getFolder("INBOX");
The password what i get for a particular user from "users" table is
encrypted (SHA).
AFAIK(!) James does not support storing plain passwords into the users
table
out-of-the-box.
Without the plain password you can't connect to the pop3 Server
because you can't recalculate the plain password from the SHA hash.
(That's why SHA is used.)
Well it whould be nonsense to encrypt passwords if it whould be so easy
to decrypt it :-P
So you have the following possibilities
1. I'm wrong and it is possibible to tell James to store plain passwords
No you are right ;-)
2. You hack James to use plain passwords (start somewhere at
JamesUsersJdbcRepository)
We will add support for more encryption modes. I think we will also add
clear storage.
3. you get the plain password from another source
This is the best solution ,,
4. you read the mails directly, without javamail, from DB/File
also possible
