Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-553:
----------------------------------------
The ported code does not work; after fixing up the check() method to print out
the exception text, it is apparent that we are getting the following exception:
Connection failed: Error checking the connection: Unable to locate provider for
protocol: pop3
It seems like we may be missing a jar or two - or we need to force a protocol
implementation to be registered by the connector. Does anyone have any insight
here?
> [GSoC] Create an Email connector for Apache ManifoldCF
> ------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CONNECTORS-553
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-553
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Email connector
> Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 1.2
> Reporter: Erlend Garåsen
> Assignee: Piergiorgio Lucidi
> Labels: gsoc, gsoc2013, mentor
> Fix For: ManifoldCF 1.5
>
>
> 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
