Hi Norman,

I just noticed the smtp handler chain config file and realized that I have been using James SMTP without much protection from spamming.

I see the ValidRcptHandler sample config and I'll try enabling that.

But in larger picture, what are the recommended handlers one should be using in a production server?

Help is appreciated!

Hi Bing,

the RemoteDelivery idea is good. Maybe we could even add some kind of
listener to RemoteDelivery which will get triggered on success,perm
errror and temp error. WDYT ?

About the recipient check, In current trunk there is the
ValidRcptHandler which will take care of rejecting non existing users
in the smtp dialog. We made it configurable because sometimes you want
to really accept every email ( for example when building a spamtrap).

Norman

Exactly.

I am thinking embedding some code similar to RemoteDelivery in my web app to
talk to remote SMTP server responsible for the customer's . Would it be a
viable approach?

BTW, I just found that James did not verify the existence of the local
accounts in the SMTP service until later in the delivery pipe. The result is
that the SMTP always takes any incoming emails. It seems to better "fail
right away". What do you think?


Thanks

Bing

Hi Bing,

could you explain in bit more ? You need to tell your clients if the
email is still in the queue,bounced or sent ?

Hi again,

My hacking with James continues.

This time I'd like to build a service to James for SMTP clients to query for the status of previous SMTP requests. The use case is email verification at customer registration. I'd like to give customer concrete feedback as to the status of sending the verification email: sent successfully, bad domain,
bad account, etc. Since SMTP is a asynchronous process, I'm thinking
building a service that the sender side can poll for the status of previous
jobs.

Anything already built in? Any ideas how to implement this? Always
appreciate it!

Bing
