Description
Context: The mailbox subproject (http://james.apache.org/mailbox/) supports maildir, SQL database (via JPA) and Java Content Repository (JCR) as technology for mail storage. This flexibility is achieved thanks to a API design that abstracts mail storage from the mail protocols.
Task: NoSQL storage (for example CouchDB or Cassandra) has great potential for mail storage. Design and develop an suitable RESTful integration API and implementations for as many NoSQL targets as possible in the time.
