> Apache ManifoldCF is an effort to provide an open source framework for
> connecting source content repositories like Microsoft Sharepoint and EMC
> Documentum, to target repositories or indexes, such as Apache Solr, Open
> Search Server, or ElasticSearch. Apache ManifoldCF also defines a security
> model for target repositories that permits them to enforce source-repository
> security policies.
> ManifoldCF is based on a framework structure that allows developers to
> implement new connectors for repositories, search servers and authorities
> servers [1].
> Proposal:
> Implement an email connector that should support both IMAP and POP3 servers
> as well as SSL/TLS encryption and server certificates.
> Skills needed:
> - Java programming
> - IMAP and POP protocols
> - XML
