I started looking for a POP3 solution, but James looks like it has a lot to
offer and I don't want to confine it only POP3. I will probably use IMAP &
SMTP too.

SMTP is solid but i know that the IMAP code base has some serious
issues. these are fixable but the IMAP code base is in the middle of a
major refactoring and is being developed on trunk only.

are you using the code in trunk or the latest release?

My intention is to do everything without changing JAMES sourcecode. Looks
very doable.

you may find IMAP difficult since the released design is quite
monolithic. the code on trunk is better factored but there are no
plans ATM to backport.

I got a proof of concept working by registering MyMailRepository in
config.xml > mailstore > repositories > repository and then setting
config.xml > inboxRepository > respository.destinationURL to use the
protocol I defined in the mailstore block.

I was able to connect with a pop3 client and retreive my test mail from
MyMailRepository. Very cool!!! Now I will work on a UsersRepository...

cool :-)
