* Quick Start http://james.apache.org/server/3/quick-start.html
The Apache James Project is happy to announce the release of version 0.2 of the Apache James jDKIM library.
jDKIM is a DKIM implementation library written in Java. It provides both verification and signing and also provides Mailets for the Apache JAMES project.
This is the first official release of the library, but the code has been in production almost unchanged since two years.
The Apache James Project is happy to announce the release of version 0.7 of the Apache James Mime4J.
Mime4J is a flexible MIME parsing library written in Java. SAX, DOM and pull parsing styles are supported.
The 0.7 release brings another round of API enhancements, bug fixes and performance optimizations. A major effort has been put in code reorganization, separating parsing code from DOM manipulation code. Mime4J has been restructured into three separate modules: 'core', 'dom' and 'storage'. The 'core' package provides an event-driven SAX style parser that relies on a callback mechanism to report parsing events such as the start of an entity header the start of a body, etc. The 'dom' package contains base/abstract classes and interfaces for MIME-DOM manipulation aiming to provide the base for a full featured traversable DOM. Per default the Mime4J DOM builder stores content of individual body parts in memory. The 'storage' package provides support for more complex storage backends such on-disk storage systems, overflow on max limit, or encrypted storage through JSSE API.
Mime4J 0.7 improves support for headless messages, malformed separation between headers and body and adds support for "obsolete" rfc822 syntax (e.g: "Header<somespace>: " style). Parsing performance for quoted printable streams have been considerably improved. A "DecodeMonitor" object has been introduced in most code to define how to deal with malformed input (Lenient vs Strict behaviours). Mime4J 0.7 also provides LenientFieldParser as an alternative to DefaultFieldParser when a higher degree of tolerance to non-severe MIME field format violations is desired.
The Apache James Project is happy to announce the release of version 0.9.9 of the Apache James jSPF which includes fixes related to OSGI.
The Apache James Project is happy to announce the release of version 1.5 of the Apache James Protocols.
The Apache James Project is happy to announce the release of version 0.2 of the Apache James IMAP and Mailbox components with following features:
- Numerous IMAP bug fixes (better client support, memory improvement, NIO and IO support...).
- Support for IMAP IDLE (RFC 2177, server transmit updates to the client in real time).
- Support for IMAP User Flags.
- Support for IMAP WITHIN Extensions (RFC 5032).
- Mailbox Tooling to copy from a persistence implementation to another implementation.
- ... See also the complete release notes for IMAP 0.2 and Mailbox 0.2.
The Java Apache Mail Enterprise Server (a.k.a. Apache James) Project is happy to announce the release of version 1.2 of the Apache James Protocols.
The Java Apache Mail Enterprise Server (a.k.a. Apache James) Project is happy to announce the release of version 3.0-M2 (Milestone 2) of the Apache James server.
M2 is not only a fast corrective release on M1 (issues related to JMX security configuration on Windows platforms,...), but also contains an important number of enhancement and JIRA fixes.
For example, memory usage has been reduced thanks to optimizations on the ActiveMQ component usage (responsible for the mail spooling).
We thank all Users for their feedback and tests and we encourage anyone to discover this Milestone 2 release.

The Java Apache Mail Enterprise Server (a.k.a. Apache James) Project is happy to announce the release of version 3.0-M1 (Milestone 1) of the Apache James server.
The Apache James Server is a 100% pure Java enterprise mail server based on open protocols. Currently supported are SMTP/LMTP, POP3, IMAP4 protocols together with several different storage solutions (relational database via JPA and JDBC, File system with MailDir, JCR Content Repsitory).
The James server also serves as a mail application platform. It hosts the Apache Mailet API, and acts has a Mailet container. This feature makes it easy to design, write, and deploy custom applications for mail processing. This modularity and ease of customization is one of James' strengths, and can allow administrators to produce powerful applications surprisingly easily.
Features for that version include enhancements to nearly every area of functionality, including full IMAP support, improved mailing list capabilities, fastfail support, SMTP API for developing own fastfail filters and the next revision of the Mailet API.
This was an exciting time in James development and we thank all contributors.
We are still actively looking for eager, capable developers to contribute to James. If you're interesting in contributing to the James project, please subscribe to the James mailing lists.

The James Team are delighted to announce that we're proposing two project ideas for Google Summer of Code (GSOC) 2008. The project Ideas are set out on the Apache GSOC wiki here.
In brief they are:
1) Develop a VERP Mailet to allow James to write VERP modified return addresses on outbound messages, and an inbound mailet/matcher to identify VERP bounces and invoke configurable "do something" code.
And
2) James' provided mailing list manager is fine for small closed groups, but lacks the functionality of a more robust MLM, the project is to add some all or more of the following features subscriber and message moderation, double opt-in and bounce handling.
We are proud to announce the availability of APACHE jSPF-0.9.5. This release brings initial support for asynchronous processing and is fully RFC4408 compliant.
After almost 2 years the Apache James team is proud to announce the availability of Apache Mime4J 0.3. This is the first release under the ASF umbrella.
Following a decision taken by the James PMC a few months ago, the Apache Mailet API project is now independent of James Server and has its own webpage and its own source repository.
James PMC is proud to announce the availability of the final release of James Server 2.3.1. More informations on what has been fixed since the 2.3.0 release can be found in the changelog.
James PMC is proud to announce the availability of the first release candidate of James Server 2.3.1. This release is maintenance release. See the changelog for more detail.
The James PMC has approved - for the first time - a set of guidelines for the project. These guidelines are intended to reflect and summarize well-known practices in our community. They include "... definitions of how conflict is resolved by voting, who is able to vote, and the procedures to follow for proposing and making changes to the Apache James products."
James PMC is proud to announce the availability of the fourth beta of jspf 0.9. This version pass all tests in the last official release of the spf testsuite.
James PMC member and commiter Danny Angus was interviewed about James by David Reid for Feathercast episode 24. You can download the podcast from here.
The James commiters have voted to promote the Mailet API to its own James sub-project.
This move will provide a clearer division between development of the API and development of James server, and we hope this will encourage more participation from external projects.
The effort will start small, by releasing the current version, and move on to look at the enhancements we've been discussing over on the mailet api list where we will extend a warm welcome to anyone who has something to contribute.
Eventually we hope to extend the scope of the sub-project to include things like a Reference Implementation independent of James Server and suitable for embedding, an SDK, and possibly a TCK.
James PMC is proud to announce the availability of the long awaited final release of James Server 2.3.0. More informations on what's new can be found in the changelog.
James PMC is proud to announce the availability of the third beta of jspf 0.9. This version has start to use the official spf testsuite to fix all rfc issues.

New development roadmaps are being discussed right now, so stay tuned for 2.3.0 final and for the following news. - Sep/2006
We just finished a major update of james products to be able to publish each product specific site under this new website structure
After a long time of development we have released the first release candidate of James Server 2.3.0. After a period of user testing version 2.3.0 will be released.
James PMC is happy to announce that we are working on a Java implementation of the SPF specification. The first betas are already available for download.
James PMC would like to reassure all of our users that James Server is alive and well. All of the James team have kept abreast of the Avalon developments culminating in the closure of the Avalon project and dispersal of its codebase. We are are keen to stress that this has little impact on our ability to support and develop Server in both the short and long terms.
Over the coming months we will be finalising and publishing a road map for James Server which will address all of the specific concerns raised by Avalon's closure, but rest assured James Server' future is safe, and we have enthusiasm and plans aplenty.
In the meantime we would like to extend our best wishes to all our friends from Avalon, here's luck with your future projects guys!
If you are at all concerned please subscribe to the server-user mailing list and raise your points there. - 05/Jan/2005
Subversion is a version control system like CVS, but it has advantages over CVS for Apache Software Foundation (ASF) projects.
In common with all other ASF projects we have reviewed our use of CVS and migrated our code to Subversion.
Have a look at this FAQ for further details. - 05/Jan/2005
