Hi, I have read your quickstart guide on Apache's James on http://www.mobilefish.com/developer/james/james.html. I am trying to deploy James on my personal Windows server 2003. I have the James serveice running as a NT service. But I cannot recieve emails from the smtp service on my personal pc. I send emails from my pc using telnet to port 25 and send it to the private Ip address of my server. I noticed you wrote: "However you can only receive email if it is send and received from within the mobilefish.com domain." I would like to know why that is if I have started James as an NT service.

Please Contact me and Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I have James setup (Win XP environment!)very similar to your set up (i used this guide: http://remoteadmin.org.uk/tutorials/42-linux/58-apache-james). It retrieves mail from remote domain (via google apps a/c), it sets up user inbox on MYSQL but it wont deliver to the inbox (I can send to it via telnet 25). I have DNS explicitly set. localhost does resolve to 120.0.0.1. the error is always like this in fetch mail logs: ? any ideas much appreciated?

21/08/09 22:49:16 INFO fetchmail.myrealdomain.com: Ignoring recipient header. Using configured recipient as new envelope recipient: red@localhost. Message ID: <[email protected]>. Flags: Seen = false, Delete = false.
21/08/09 22:49:17 WARN fetchmail.myrealdomain.com: Message could not be delivered due to an error determining the remote domain. Message ID: <[email protected]>. Flags: Seen = false, Delete = false.

I'm trying to use james for converting an RFC822 formatted message in a file to text components. I was hoping to just use MimeMessageInputStreamSource amd MimeMessageWrapper to perform the conversion as a utility. Do i need to have James installed and running as a serice for this to work?

And do you know of any sample code for getting out the message parts and attachments?

thanks

Hi,

I am very new in mailing system. I don't have very clear idea about this.

My case study is to install a mail server(like James) into localhost, send mail to localhost and retrieve mails from the same. As all external network in my office domain is blocked so that it is not possiable for me to test my code for sending mails and fetching inbox out side this network.

From the upper mentioned configuration i am bit confused about the port number on which James server will be running. Because while i am making code using java mailing api, there i should put host like "localhost:1234". Can you please help me to find out this "1234".

Thanks. Btw upper mentioned configuration manual helped lot for installing James server. Thanks once againg for that.

This is exactly what I needed, thank you VERY MUCH!
