JBoss Mail Server

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

JBoss Mail Server is an open source messaging and collaborative software product developed by JBoss. JBoss Mail Server is a relatively new project which uses JBoss's existing JBoss Application Server, Hibernate, as well as the Java language and Virtual Machine to support its core implementation. The project envisions ease of installation and configuration as a core goal in addition to executing on multiple platforms and utilizing multiple databases.

[edit] Capabilities

The present release version of JBoss Mail Server is 1.0 Milestone 5-pre1 (June 2006). As of this release it supports both of the POP and SMTP protocols with a wide range of security and routing settings. One of the project goals is to allow "Mail-Based Applications" through user extensibility. Much of the core server is implemented using these extension points based on JBoss's extended version of JMX MBeans and Java classes conforming to JBoss Mail Server's MailListener interface.
