---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Make IMAP modular
> -----------------
>
> Key: JAMES-3867
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3867
> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: guice, IMAPServer
> Reporter: Benoit Tellier
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.8.0
>
> Time Spent: 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> As an IMAP administrator I want to customize IMAP processing easily. This
> includes removing/adding/changing IMAP processors/encoders/decoders.
> This allows the following use cases:
> - Add support for (potentially custom) IMAP extensions without recompiling
> James
> - Removing support for buggy commands easily, if any
> - Enforcing "read only behaviour"
> - Customizing some commands. For instance one of my customers got a tricky
> non standard IMAP authenticate command to handle.
> The admin would specify a list of ImapPackage (which is itself a bundle of
> processors/encoders/decoders) from the imapserver.xml configuration file. By
> default, if unspecified the default IMAP package would be used.
> Both ImapPackage/processors/encoders/decoders loading would leverage the
> extensions-jars mechanism.
> h3. Definition of done
> Write an exemple of such modularization writing a PING / PONG command and
> load it into a James server.
> {code:java}
> A001 PING whatever
> * PONG whatever
> A001 OK PING command completed.
> {code}
