Thanks for you replies folks, In response to your question Robert regarding 'what I'd expect from a client', i am interested in knowledge management, so, to be able to treat email in the same manner as this forum handles posts is probably what I'm looking for, in other words, an ongoing conversation is recorded and viewed as a tree of nodes. Of course this happens currently via forwarding of, and replying to, email. The above version tracking and branching scenario would not be foreign to a JSR-170 repository, I guess, but how you could integrate that with a email server I don't know. If a mail client was conventional then just to be able to periodically export a mail server JSR-170 repository across to an enterprise one (containing other document types) would be the goal. Then the email docs could be searched via JSR-170 functionality. Its early days for me on this, so there is a definitely work for me to get up to speed (to just understand what you've written :) ), but I may have a chance to work on these kinds of issues in my new role, so what was previously an academic interest (in knowledge management) may become more practical. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Managing-email-within-a-JSR-170-repository-tp18250580p18270412.html Sent from the Jackrabbit - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
