You are absolutely correct. I have no intention on trying to force WO
to act as some type of service. I only use WO for front end web stuff.
I'll take a look at Twisted as well. Thanks for the input. =)

For either of these, WebObjects itself is probably not the best choice
in that the request/response loop is really focused on dealing with
the idiosyncrasies of HTTP.
There are a bunch of protocol implementations in Java and you could
certainly use EO with them to retain all of the benefits therein.
If you are open to considering other solutions, you might want to have
a look at Twisted -- http://www.twistedmatrix.com/ -- in that it is an
'internet event processing system' that happens to implement both SMTP
and POP, among many other protocols. Very cool software -- via
PyObjC, it integrates quite nicely into Cocoa apps, too.
