Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-553:
----------------------------------------
Got things working pretty well now.
Only two critical things left:
(1) The URL it uses for messages right now is just not going to do. We'll have
to come up with something better, perhaps using the message ID and a URL prefix
that the user supplies.
(2) The code needs background thread protection against infinite socket waits.
That's relatively easy to do, luckily.
After these are done, I'm ready to merge the branch into trunk.
> [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
