JavaMail ( http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/ )is the standard for
creating mail applications in any java environment. You can indeed use
it to implement a webmail interface in WebObjects, but be prepared to
shed a lot of tears and keep a lot of coffee handy.
Yes, much coffee. It is a rather low level API that really needs a
higher level wrapper before you start to use it for anything.
The standard webmailer in Mac OS X is SquirrelMail (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/squirrelmail/ ), which is nice, fast,
and customizable. You might be able to achieve desired results in a
much shorter time by customizing your SquirrelMail installation than
writing a completely new WM in WebObjects.

PS: If you *really* want to create a webmailer in WebObjects, Project
Wonder ( http://wonder.sourceforge.net/ ) provides a very nice WO
wrapper for JavaMail's mail sending capabilities in the ERJavaMail
framework.
What would be interesting would be to make an IMAP EOF adaptor.
Hmmmm.... but that is not a trivial task.

Hi,
I’m new to WebObjects and have been playing around with the
tutorials from Apple,
and the WebObjects Visual Quickpro Guide......Inspired by it all, I
would like to
setup a webmail interface somewhat like the one over at .mac to
replace the standard
webmail interface supplied with MacOS X Server.
How difficult or easy is this and are there any open source
projects/frameworks I could
use to implement it.
Thanks in advance!
