I think James may compete eventually with sendmail, but I don't want to get
into the POP/IMAP market with qmail/exchange/lotus/etc... as I think those
products are mature and James may or may not have something unique to offer
there.
I think my vision for James was always as a "mail application server" the
same way you now have web application servers. There are a lot of products
that offer functionality that a mail application server might do, such as
virus scanning SMTP gateways, majordomo/elm/other listservs, and protocols
like Sieve which offer some server-side scripting. There are also a lot of
mail applications that I don't think have been built yet that James could
help jumpstart.
But I think I'll have to see what the market really thinks James is best
for. I'm curious as to how many people are using James really. I checked
the weblogs, and it seems James is averaging a little over 100 downloads a
day in August, which I'm pretty pleased about.
