Hi James community, For a customer use case, we are considering extending Apache James SASL support with the GSSAPI mechanism, enabling Kerberos-based authentication as specified by RFC 4752 <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4752.html>.
Related Jira ticket: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-4215. The intention would be to integrate it with James’s existing SASL infrastructure and make it available to applicable protocols. Would the community be interested in receiving and maintaining this contribution upstream? If not, we may instead implement and maintain it in TMail Backend. Regards, Quan
