Gautier DI FOLCO commented on JAMES-2578:
-----------------------------------------

We previously rely on Java's serialization to store mail attributes which was 
brittle.

We have introduced a new Mail API which exposes a dedicated type for 
attributes, giving them the ability to (de)serialize them to Json avoiding a 
large set of bug classes.

> MQs should not rely on Serializable

> Mail interface allows people to insert any Serializable object as an 
> attribute.
> For now, we then relied on java serialization when putting Mail object into a 
> MQ.
> Now that we try to write a new MailQueue on top of RabbitMQ, it makes sense 
> to try to avoid this use of Serializable.
