We run James in 4 different environments including production.
Management & maintenance of James has always been a grey area because it
does not fall under a J2EE App Server.
In fact it is the only application which we run outside of Weblogic 8.1.
I would be very interested in helping out in this regard.

The original post's goal was to run James within a J2EE server. I
never intended to suggest this would be easy or possible at all ;-)

But nevertheless, I think it would be a benefitial long time goal.
Even though this is probably not the use case for the majority of
James users.
And JCA would be the right way to do this.
