Hi!

We are considering using james in our project but after having looked
through the documentation I haven't really understood if what we want to do
is possible or how to do it.

 

This is our situation:

We have a webapp that is running on several different machines. A production
server, a staging server and all local servers that are used during
development. The problem is that sending mail through our webapp does not
always work because the smtp server at our production server does not accept
mail from certain locations. Sometimes we are at the mercy of different ISPs
that sometimes block mail going out.

 

We thougt a good solution would be to bundle the james-smtp server with our
webapp. When we start our webapp, we also start the james smtp-server and
send mail through that one. In that case, we would always have a working
mail server and the app would be less platform-dependent.

 

I have searched the james documentation but I am having a hard time finding
information about this. I looked in the javadoc for version 2.3 and found a
SMTPServer class but that one seems to be missing in version 3. And version
2 does not seem to be available in the maven repository.

 

Could anyone point me in the right direction? =)

Thanks

/Ludwig
