    Description

      Today, remoteDelivery is lightly tested and error corner cases are not tested.

      Several bugs are already known cf JAMES-2097

      JAMES-2442 is an attempt to write such tests but some of these tests require not-yet available tooling.

      In order to write such tests we need :

      • 1. a tcp mock server (replying smtp error codes)
      • 2. listening on port 25
      • 3. on it's own IP

      The FakeSmtp docker approach we had so far covers 2 & 3. We did not find yet a good solution for 1.

      What we had in mind is:

      • Writing our own SMTP mock server (POC available here: https://github.com/linagora/james-project/pull/2545
      • Introduce a JSON format corresponding to the behavior of this Mock server
      • load this via HTTP to allow remote setup
      • exposes delivered emails over HTTP to allow writing assertions
      • dockerizing this.

      This will allow writing the tests we are missing.
