I think that this problem may still be around with 2.1-SNAPSHOT:
http://fusesource.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=746&tstart=0 I noticed that I had a pop3 server outage and then subsequently had a similar problem i.e. IllegalStateException, folder not open. Here's when the outage started. 2009-11-26 11:57:55,316 [: MailComponent] WARN ultPollingConsumerPollStrategy - Consumer Consumer[pop3://...] could not poll endpoint: pop3://... caused by: Connect failed javax.mail.MessagingException: Connect failed; nested exception is: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host at com.sun.mail.pop3.POP3Store.protocolConnect(POP3Store.java:161) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:288) at org.apache.camel.component.mail.MailConsumer.ensureIsConnected(MailConsumer.java:241) at org.apache.camel.component.mail.MailConsumer.poll(MailConsumer.java:79) at org.apache.camel.impl.ScheduledPollConsumer.run(ScheduledPollConsumer.java:108) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:441) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRunAndReset(FutureTask.java:317) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.runAndReset(FutureTask.java:150) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.access$101(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:98) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.runPeriodic(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:181) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.run(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:205) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Caused by: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(PlainSocketImpl.java:333) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(PlainSocketImpl.java:195) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:182) at java.net.SocksSocketImpl.connect(SocksSocketImpl.java:366) at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:519) at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:469) at com.sun.mail.util.SocketFetcher.createSocket(SocketFetcher.java:233) at com.sun.mail.util.SocketFetcher.getSocket(SocketFetcher.java:189) at com.sun.mail.pop3.Protocol.(Protocol.java:94) at com.sun.mail.pop3.POP3Store.getPort(POP3Store.java:214) at com.sun.mail.pop3.POP3Store.protocolConnect(POP3Store.java:157) ... 13 more This went on for about a minute or so and there was no more in the log file until several hours later - in fact when an email appeared in the INBOX. I know this because my personal email account was copied on the email and so I have the timestamp. I then get the following message every time I poll the server and have to re-start my application to get over it: 2009-11-26 19:19:57,293 [: MailComponent] ERROR MailConsumer - Folder not open java.lang.IllegalStateException: Folder not open at javax.mail.Folder.getMessages(Folder.java:938) at javax.mail.Folder.search(Folder.java:1226) at org.apache.camel.component.mail.MailConsumer.poll(MailConsumer.java:107) at org.apache.camel.impl.ScheduledPollConsumer.run(ScheduledPollConsumer.java:108) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:441) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRunAndReset(FutureTask.java:317) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.runAndReset(FutureTask.java:150) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.access$101(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:98) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.runPeriodic(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:181) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.run(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:205) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Looks as though there might be a bug in the Camel Mail component? Happy to create a JIRA if there is consensus.
