Yes. There are many reasons. Not the least of which is the mailet api is ill-conceived, and I won't even address the polito-technical issues involved (software is a competitive marketplace open source or not. Its just the way things are).
Technically, many of the the IDEAs are good, the IMPLEMENTATION is bad or I'd have stolen the code (I originally stole their stream handling code but it was bad too -- a large customer ran it through a profiler and revealed it sucked 90% of our CPU footprint) so we'll be ditching it too. I'm not going to rattle off all of the reasons because I researched this over a year ago and I prefer to kill JAMES with code and not with words. The idea of doing a new mail server started before I joined JBoss, when I was still an Apache member. Needless to say, I'm intimately familiar with JAMES's source and if I feel pieces are useful, I'll use them.
