Hello, 1) What's the status of change from Apache Commons Net Mail to JavaMail? It seems MailSenderPlugin.java is more or less ready but XWiki.java still uses the old code? 2) Are there any plans to allow for SMTP Authentication? 3) Is there a way to enforce some kind of turing test on register? Greetings, Lilianne E. Blaze

We'd love to see contributions in these 2 areas. With good patches it can be done real quick. Right now I don't know anyone from the xwiki dev team working on it. I guess we're all using the new MailSender plugin and we haven't had the need for SMTP authentication. I do agree it would be nice to support it. Make sure you vote for this issue in jira. All the popular issues surface up on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sys... and the xwiki devs use this list to guide their work (amongst other things).
3) Is there a way to enforce some kind of turing test on register?
Not sure what you mean. We do have automated functional tests on register though. What's missing? Thanks -Vincent

That's CAPTCHA, and for the answer, see http://www.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?forum=2563&local=y&query=captcha (Short summary: yes, it is possible, but it wasn't done in the official release yet) -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
