<subsection name="What about IMAP support?">
<p>Unfortunately IMAP support is currently stalled. There is a
proposal in CVS, but IMAP is a significantly more complex than other mail protocols,
both from a protocol command support and in terms of complexity you need on the
server. If you are interested in taking the proverbial ball and running with it, we
would all very much appreciated. (I personally am incredibly frustrated with an old
Netscape Mail server, but I've sworn myself to upgrade only to James's IMAP once ready
as incentive.)

new interest. We are hopeful that we will be able to provide basic IMAP support in

+ <subsection name="How to remove unneeded services like NNTP, POP3?">
+ <p>The following information is based on James 2.0a3, but the
+ upcoming 2.1 version should be similar.</p>
+ <p>NNTP and other underlying services are called "blocks" in the
+ Avalon Phoenix terminology. Blocks are specified in the
+ assembly.xml file which is under the apps/james/conf directory in
+ 2.0a3 and apps\james\SAR-INF in 2.1. Note: this file is created
+ during the first startup of James.</p>
+ <p>There are dependencies between the blocks, which you can read from
+ the file. For example the SMTP Server block depends on the
+ users-store block, so if you want SMTP then you cannot remove the
+ users-store block even if you only want to relay messages.</p>
+ <p>To remove the NNTP Server comment out the following blocks:
+ NNTP server, NNTP Authentication Service, NNTP repository.
+ To remove the POP3 Server comment out the POP3 Server block.</p>
+ <p>If you remove a block it wont't be loaded next time you restart
+ James. You must also remove all sections related to the removed
+ blocks from the James configuration file - config.xml - otherwise
+ you will get error messages, saying that there is no corresponding
+ block.<br/>
