--------------------------------------
This test case is still failing to me. So I have excluded it from the build
> Inappropriate test strategy in MailEchoRawXMLTest

> Key: SYNAPSE-246
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNAPSE-246
> Project: Synapse
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Transports
> Affects Versions: NIGHTLY
> Reporter: Andreas Veithen
> Assignee: Andreas Veithen
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: FUTURE
>
>
> The unit tests in MailEchoRawXMLTest test the mail transport by sending mails
> to a Gmail account, connecting to smtp.gmail.com and pop.gmail.com. This
> strategy is inappropriate for several reasons:
> 1) It introduces a dependency external to the test itself.
> 2) The tests will fail when executed on a machine not connected to the
> Internet or from within a network with a restrictive firewall.
> 3) It slows down the execution of the tests.
> 4) Sporadically smtp.gmail.com replies with "421 4.4.5 Server busy, try again
> later.", causing the test to fail.
> Maybe we should consider using something like mock-javamail
> (https://mock-javamail.dev.java.net/) to make these tests self-containing.
