I guess this is a popular question. Is there a wiki for this anywhere? I've been searching for a definitive how to. Somehow difficult to find.
I'm moving my sending mechanism to a static ip. But I want to keep that static ip server to the bare minimum. (aws micro instance + elastic ip) .. So I need to setup a james instance which does nothing but proxy messages for all users from my domain to wherever they are going. I would like to keep this james instance from knowing anything about the users nor delivering mail to the users etc. I would like it not to have a database (if possible). I would like the bare minimum for security. What I think I'm going to end up doing is: 1. create new james from fresh download 2. comment out all of the pop3 / jmx stuff from the configuration files. 3. create and modify the smtp configuration file to allow sending from a user? Is this roughly correct? Is there an easy way to ensure that mails are never cached to any disk or db? Is there anything else I need to do? What happens if the mail is instantaneously rejected? Is the connection still open to the originating james server? Or does the proxy server somehow need to know where to send errors back to?
