Hi,

I don't know what kind of tasks you are talking about getting help with, and I 
don't have much (or any) free time, but MAYBE I could help if there is 
something I could handle.

I am a developer (coding anything except Apple-related stuff), but I am not 
such a huge fan of Java, although it is very portable and cross platform, which 
is a good thing.

I have yesterday gotten the `apache-james-3.0-beta4-app`, set it up on a 
dynamic IP domain, and let it run. Soon I will make it use TLS as well. I still 
need to make it use a DB instead of the filesystem, so hopefully I will manage 
to make it use SQL Server soon (hopefully it works - I have no idea if you have 
tested James with SQL Server, but anyway).
Please use beta5 instead, there's something like 2 years of development between these to versions.
So, since I am torturing myself with all these configurations, and reading the 
documentation on your site seems like riddle-solving, maybe I could do 
something related to that... I am not promising anything, since my schedule is 
crazy and my mind already about to explode, but maybe I can do something...
Definitely, I could make a long list of questions for someone to answer which 
you can post as FAQ in your site...
We are definitely working on the website but a fresh view is always welcome. Could you write that list of question ? We'll make sure there's clear answer to them.
Irrelevant: I know that this is too early to have, but I think that having a 
management UI tool that updates the configs based on the user interaction and 
also manages the mail server would help a lot the users. Although, having used 
other Apache software in the past (Solr), it seems to me that helping newbie 
users out is not a high priority in your list.

Every Apache project is different, because people are different. We definitely want a webadmin UI for james.
We started an admin module that talks REST for that exact purpose.
It's not a goal in 3.0 but if you want to work on such a feature, you are very welcome !
