Hello Marc, To second what Eric said. The project is still very active. We recognized that the web-site and the information there needs a lot of TLC but unfortunately we did not find a good solution until recently. I believe things will change for the better with the upcoming migration to Apache CMS. This will enable more user friendly site-updates with immediate feedback. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1374 I also talked to Eric about the mailing list feature that I think will grow the number of James users. I don't have knowledge about the implementation but I think it was/could be implemented as a Mailet. This will make it very easy to customize. Cheers,
