Danny's comment in user@ regarding some LinearProcessor behavior had me looking in CVS for its origin. And I found some very interesting old code sitting in the attic.
Did you know that at one point, James supported &, | and ! operations? Or that there had been work on a TreeProcessor as well as LinearProcessor? :-) I hadn't, and was pleasantly surprised to find a sample configuration including "my" proposed class attribute for the processor element. Check out the documentation block for http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/james-server/src/org/apache/james/transpor t/Attic/TreeProcessor.java?rev=1.1&hideattic=0&view=markup Steve Brewin: give you any ideas for jSieve? :-) It looks like a lot of the old "Scoobie Gang" work got "lost" during the conversion from the original Mail Servlet idea to Mailets, but there are some cool ideas and code snippets we could adopt. By the way, if anyone wonders about Processors and Mailets, and why it is often confusing in some cases as to why they are different, look at the old code. A processor was nothing more than a specialized mailet. :-) So it shouldn't be surprising at all, in retrospect. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
