Benoit Tellier commented on JAMES-3278:
---------------------------------------

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-2335 would make introducing such a 
specific configuration possible.

> Simplify POP3 Configuration

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3278
>             Project: James Server

>            Reporter: David Leangen
>            Priority: Major
>
> In the context of the *Basic Server*, it has been decided (ref??) that POP3 
> will be an included feature, but will be disabled by default.
> The current mechanism by which POP3 is configured is questionable in this 
> context because:
>  * It exposes a lot of technical details that are not appropriate for a Basic 
> Operator
>  * It seems to require a lot of unnecessary configurations (to be discussed)
>  * It mixes in the security (SSL) concern, which is another large and 
> important issue
>  * It is in XML 🤮
> We should determine how this configuration can be made more 
> "Operator-friendly".
>  
> (Note: we do not expect to work on this immediately. This is more of a 
> placeholder for later work once an initial version of the Basic Server has 
> been released.)
