This is related to my earlier post regarding converting e-mail to IM’s. There is a plugin called emaillistener.jar that will basically do what I am wanting, but only if I can have it running in multiple instances. The existing plugin will only monitor one e-mail account.
But if I can run multiple instances of the plugin, then I can use each instance to monitor different e-mail accounts. Is this possible? If the Jar file is renamed will that work?
Unfortunately, renaming the plugin jar file won’t work. The plugin sets and uses a number of properties that are stored within Openfire, so if you made multiple copies of the plugin they’d all be accessing the same property values. However, with a bit of work it would be possible to alter the existing Email Listener plugin to handle multiple mailboxes.
Yeah, with a bit of work from someone who actually knows something about java, I’m sure it would be pretty simple… I’m not that guy unfortunately. It would be a awesome plugin though with a lot of potential uses…
