Hi folks,
in our environment, we need to synchronize the state of messages within
James (using JPA mailbox) with an external system. This means that (i)
when messages get fetched/deleted using IMAP, I want to call some Java
code that updates an external database and (ii) when changes to the
external database are made, the corresponding message flags should be
set in the James database.
In order to achieve that, I thought about the following approaches:
Regarding (i) the MessageListener may be of help, since it allows to
provide hooks for flags such as SEEN and DELETED. In this respect, my
question would be how to register my own MessageListener implementation?
In terms of (ii), the cleanest approach would be store the messageId of
the external system within a custom JPA entity inheriting from
JPAMessage. The corresponding messageId would be transferred as a header
of the MimeMessage to store. This means, I would require to add some
custom code, when the JPAMessage is created based on the MimeMessage. Is
this possible in James, and if so, could someone provide me with a hint
how to do this?
Thanks and best regards,
Marco
