If you remember almost 3 years ago we (you and me) started a similar refactoring that is here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/james/server/sandbox/inactive/handlerapi-experiment/src/java/org/apache/james/smtpserver/?view=log
That branch mainly includes a more advanced fastfail design introducing hooks, and also change the model for the protocol handling to "line push" method (even if the code is more a Proof of concept than a production ready wrapper). Once the protocol handler is push based it should be trivial to "switch" the transport from avalon to mina. (I'm not saying that you should start from that branch, but maybe it worth having a look at it,too) Stefano 2009/10/12 Norman Maurer <[email protected]>: > Hi all, > > as part of my study I need to write some docs and proof of concept > about "threading vs. async processing".
