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.

http://james.apache.org/download.cgi

The bugfixes / tasks since 2.3.0 are:

• Remove ordb.org from docs
• OOM caused by unbounded cache in InetAddress (was James leaks memory slowly)
• sendmail.py doesn't handle multiple TO-recipient
• sendmail.py crashes on line "from_addr = os.environ['USER'] + '@' + socket.getfqdn()"
• ServerConnection doesn't properly handle the TCP/IP backlog
• Search & Fix broken links on the new website
• MBoxMailRepository.remove(String key) causes ClassCastException
• Failure to correctly set mail.smtp.localhost leads to mail servers being listed on cbl.abuseat.org and mail being rejected by Spamhaus.
• MailAddress not check for valid syntax if new MailAddress(user, domain) is used
• sendmail.py use localhost to connect to local smtpserver. We should use 127.0.0.1
• exporting variables using build.sh on solaris breaks
• James will not start if there is directory with too many files and folders in the repostiory path
• python/sendmail.py is not added to the binary distribution package
• Update license headers to follow the latest ASF requirements as of November the 1st
• Merge 2.3.0a1 to 2.3.0 final releases on JIRA
• Upgrade dnsjava to 2.0.3 when available
• Add documentation for the dns ttl issue
• Make sure our container use an expiration for cached dns data

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.
