James server issue...

[Goran Markovic]

Hi, I have a problem using James.
I register user 'jaros' and I send to him email . However, in the folder inboxes/jaros, If I sent text message, this file is created "4D61696C313233373939303037383930362D31.Repository.FileObjectStore"
If I try to send an attachment, the file which is received is "4D61696C313233373939303037383930362D31.Repository.FileStreamStore", which contanis, along headers information content like

So, what should I do, or what I didn't do, to obtain a messages, where from I can read mail, and get an attachment?

[Paul Clapham]

You still have to use e-mail client software to look at those e-mail messages.

[Goran Markovic]

can you suggest me some?

[Goran Markovic]

wait, you think that, messages should be redirected into folder of email client (like Eudora), and than to open an email? But where to store messages, in that case?

[Ulf Dittmer]

No, you need to create an account in your email client that retrieves its mail from the "jaros" account of the James server.

Hi. I cannot set email client, probably because I'm testing some application on my home pc (I have no domain to provide for pop3/smtp). I can perform sending mails between registered users : user A can sent message to user B, and vice verse, but only in domain of my localhost (I mean I cannot in my Outlook type for pop3 server : 'pop3.localhost'. Enabling mail software to receive and send message require registered domain also, and considering that I using home pc, I do not have any. Can I override this disability so I can test application, or I must be connected on some domain (let says of my company) in order to perform such a testing?

[Ulf Dittmer]

You don't need a domain to test a local email server. Just use 127.0.0.1 as the server.

[Goran Markovic]

yes, you were right! Tell me one thing about James: Am I right, that, when application goes to production, instead of localhost I should specify the right domain of application, what it is register under? So instead - localhost, I should provide instead of

         <servername>localhost</servername>

something like

         <servername>bluebeaches.com</servername> 

, where each registered user will have an account - [e-mail]?
I wouldn't ask so much about James, but it's documentation isn't much extensive.

[Ulf Dittmer]

Yes, but you will have to add MX records for "bluebeaches.com" to the DNS system which point at the IP address of the James server.

[Goran Markovic]

Ok. I gonna explore James gradually, and googling for a while. Thanks Ulf, and rest of people on JavaRanch...
