The Apache James team (http://james.apache.org) are pleased to announce that once more we are proposing ideas for Google Summer of Code student projects. This years ideas are:
1) To develop a VERP Mailet to allow James to write VERP modified return addresses on outbound messages, and an inbound mailet/matcher to identify VERP bounces and invoke configurable "do something" code.
2) James' provided mailing list manager is fine for small closed groups, but lacks the functionality of a more robust MLM, the project is to add some all or more of the following features: subscriber and message moderation, double opt-in and bounce handling.
We all look forward to welcoming Student proposals for these or any other ideas, and would welcome discussion of the ideas on the James Server Developers mailing list.

The Apache James commiters have voted to promote the Mailet API to its own James sub-project. This move will provide a clearer division between development of the API and development of James server, and we hope this will encourage more participation from external projects.
The effort will start small, by releasing the current version, and move on to look at the enhancements we've been discussing on the mailet-api@james.apache.org list (see the bottom) where we will extend a warm welcome to anyone who has something to contribute.
Eventually we hope to extend the scope of the sub-project to include things like a Reference Implementation independent of James Server and suitable for embedding, an SDK, and possibly a TCK.
