On the one hand you're perfectly right, but that's nothing special as it
would be if it is really integrated with James. Additionally you've got the
problem that you've got to store the mails after fetching them via POP3 so
you have to write them in a database or something like that.
So why not getting alle the mails via JDBC?
I'm currently developing a webbased mail-client on Jetspeed and I'm also
thinking of integration with James. So I've already thought quite some time
about that. What my biggest problem is, is that James doesn't support virtual
hosts.
By the way if somebody is interested in my code, I want to release it under
the Apache Licence in a few weeks. Just let me know.
Bye,
Stefan
