It appears that the mailetconfig fails to retrieve the Constants.SERVER_NAMES attribute from the current mail session object. I have traced this problem with the following culprit line within the RemoteDelivery.deliver method:
Collection servernames = (Collection) getMailetContext().getAttribute(Constants.SERVER_NAMES); I have configured James server to be 'secemail.dnsalias.com' with autodetect option set to false as shown in the following config portion: <servernames autodetect="FALSE"> <servername>secemail.dnsalias.com</servername> </servernames> And I know that at James start-up it refers to the mentioned host servername as it's shown in the James.log file as follows: 1019084630921 [INFO ] (James): JAMES init... 1019084630921 [DEBUG ] (James): Using MailStore: org.apache.james.core.AvalonMailStore@c62c8 1019084630921 [DEBUG ] (James): Using UsersStore: org.apache.james.core.AvalonUsersStore@2940b3 1019084630921 [INFO ] (James): Local host is: orange 1019084630921 [INFO ] (James): Handling mail for: secemail.dnsalias.com 1019084630937 [INFO ] (James): Local users repository opened 1019084630937 [INFO ] (James): Private Repository LocalInbox opened 1019084630937 [DEBUG ] (James): Got spool 1019084630937 [INFO ] (James): JAMES ...init end Could anyone please provide any feedback?
