Hi Michael,
You can use a custom mailet (you need to develop it) to encrypt incoming
mails before they arrive in the mail repository.
For the decryption part when a user consults his mailbox via pop3/imap4,
there is no mailet equivalent...
For James 3, you could overwrite (develop your own)
org.apache.james.pop3server.core.CoreCmdHandlerLoader defined in
pop3server.xml, and
org.apache.james.imap.processor.main.DefaultImapProcessorFactory defined
in spring-beans.xml.
I'm not sure how to do it in James 2.3, except hacking James internals.
Maybe someone else has other ideas?
Tks,
Eric

We are building a high security service and I envisage a separate
database server. I would like to encrypt data BEFORE it goes to that
server, so that the database can be managed by someone else (and in
fact, to lock us out of general access).
Note that I'm not talking about encrypting the link to the database,
that is secured already.
Many thanks,
Michael Fielding
