Hi Matthieu,

I've tried building James on an Ubuntu 16.04 Virtualbox VM but the Maven build 
fails because of out-of-memory problems. I'm going to install Ubuntu as dual 
boot in the coming days (and upgrade my RAM eventually).

For the time being, could you point me to a similar protocol implementation in 
the codebase? I am highly interested in this project and potentially crafting a 
Proposal for it. The idea of reading RFCs and producing well-tested 
implementations sounds appealing to me.

I am an undergraduate Computer Science student at the University of Western 
Ontario just finishing my 4th year (coming back for a 5th to finish a major in 
Genetics). I have experience with Java in an academic setting for about 6 years 
and I have also written Java in my Summer of Code project last year.

Thanks,
Shrumit

> James should implement all protocols that secure email delivery on the web

>             Project: James Server
>          Issue Type: Task
>            Reporter: Matthieu Baechler

> James aims at becoming a leading email solution in the next few years.
> For that to become real, we need to ensure all protocols related to email 
> delivery security are well implemented.
> Today, the protocols are (at least) :
> * SPF
> * DKIM
> * DMARC
> There's already some code about these features in James but we would be sure 
> people interested into James email hosting can configure this protocols 
> easily and that implementations are compatible with most big email providers 
> out there.
> To handle this project, the student have to know enough java to manage James 
> codebase and be confortable in reading RFC and dissecting protocols.
> The James team has a strong focus on testing because email is a serious 
> matter and you would not want to loose user's emails, so we will explain how 
> to work on these tasks with the right testing strategy and tools.
> Finally, this project should conclude with a well-written asciidoc 
> documentation about how one should deploy james with security features 
> configured
