>
> Currently the interface Mail is described as a wrapper around a MimeMessage 
> with routing information. For various reasons it would be nice if the user 
> could decide what mail API to use.
> This could be accomplished by simply adding a method to retrieve the raw 
> input stream of the message. The user can then use a mime4j parser or 
> whatever API is best fitting to parse the input stream.
> Implementing such a method in James shouldn't be too difficult since 
> org.apache.james.core.MimeMessageSource already has a method to retrieve the 
> raw input stream.
> setMessage() would also have to be accompanied by a method to overwrite the 
> raw content of the message. Preferably this method could return an output 
> stream where the raw data can be written to.
> Example code snippet of desired use case:
> class MyMailet {
>   public void service(Mail mail) {
>     org.apache.james.mime4j.message.Message message = new 
> Message(mail.getRawInputStream());
>     message = manipulateMessage(message);
>     message.writeTo(mail.getRawOutputStream(), MessageUtils.LENIENT);
>   }
> }
