Re: Developing a Forum

[Ganasen Gounden]

Hello,   Why reinvent the wheel?. Look at open source projects namely Expresso Java framework at www.jcoporate.com that has a fully customisable eForum package...otherwise search www.sourceforge.net   You can use the time you save to learn other matters....     Regards >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/25/01 08:25AM >>> Hi Gurus !   I have given a task to develop a Forum. There will be different categories in each Forum. People will Subscribe in any Category. So when there will be any mail comes to that category. It will be forwarded automatically to all the clients subscribed in that category. Its same like Java-Forum where there are different categories e.g Java, JSP, EJB etc… The other major point is that: There will be lot of trafic per hour about 400k mails per hour, Server has to generate.   I was asked to look J2EE – JMS as its for enterprise solns. But I am not clear that its for mailing lists or not. Also in JMS we have to implement the client in order to communicate with Server. But in our case user can mail from its outlook simply like in Java Forum.   Seriously Looking for a solution. If any Guru can help in this regard will be highly regarded.     Thanx in advance.     Hamid Software Engineer VSDI Soft Pvt Ltd.
