A minimal implementation of a POP3 Mail Server, developed for the G52APR module at the University of Nottingham. The mail server implements the following POP3 commands:
- USER
- PASS
- QUIT
- STAT
- LIST
- NOOP
- UIDL
- DELE
- RETR
- TOP
The server can be executed from the commandline as follows:
java Pop3Server port [timeout]
where port is the port number for the server to listen on and timeout is an optional parameter to specify the timeout of individual connections in seconds.
Certain database tables are required for the POP3 Server to function correctly. An SQL file is provided, \sql\mkdb.sql, which creates these tables and fills them with sample emails for testing purposes.
In addition, the file \src\Database.java requires correct database connection information.
