I've been talking to Scott about JCA and JavaMail.  He's made a request as follows:

1. I want a JavaMail provider that supports the javax.mail.Session
object for sending mail through an smtp gateway. This should be an
mbean service built ontop of the mail services with a jca provider
that is used to bind the session into JNDI and integrate with security
just like a database connection does. A database connection can either
be bound to a single user, take the identity of the caller as the
connection identity, or take the connection identity as an argument to
the connection factory create.

2. The jca piece is part of the mbean providing the JavaMail Session
binding. Just having a simple smtp provider that is used in the same
fashion as we currently do with the sun provider does not promote
the JavaMail Session to the same level as JDBC connections. Further,
with the JCA 1.5, you have not only integration with the JAAS security
layer, you also have integration with the same connection pool and
threading
pools. 

----
This might make a lot of sense.  Anyone interested in taking this and seeing what it 
woudl take?  I'd like to wait on the JCA 1.5 stuff unless we can do it in such a way 
that we can build it seperately as Mail Services is presently intended to be 1.0 
probably prior to the JBoss 4.0 release and I'd like people to feel confident running 
it on 3.2.x.  Any takers?
