[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-526?page=all ]

Noel J. Bergman updated JAMES-526:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
Aaron Johnson's article [1] on VERP and JAMES reminded me that some million 
years or so ago -- OK 2003 -- I posted [2] VERP matching code that I intended 
to contribute to JAMES.  It got stripped by the ASF's list server, and never 
did make it into the mailing list package.

As Aaron shows, adding VERP support to the mailing list manager is pretty 
straight forward, and the code I am attaching provides, or is intended to 
provide, general purpose VERP matching, so adding bounce recognition should not 
be difficult, either.  The interesting thing would then be to improve the 
mailing list system to automatically disable or unsubscribe users who are no 
longer addressable, based upon the VERP returns.
