Weekend is a convenient wrapper over Greenmail.
- It's functionality is to read eml files from a folder and load them into an inbox provided by Greenmail. The inbox can then be accessed by your protocol of choice.
- It is particularly helpful, when you want your code to process a particular email from an inbox. You can dump the eml (email) into weekend's home folder and have your code talk to the Inbox which was started by Greenmail.
- Download the jar from the releases and run it from terminal.
- By default it will load emails from the folder weekend present in your Downloads. i.e. if your username is ashish, then the default folder to read eml's is /home/ashish/Downloads/weekend
- A pop3 inbox can be accessed on your localhost now, on the port 3110. The login credentials to the inbox are admin/admin.
- The lookup folder and login credentials can be tweaked by using the Advanced setup.
- Install gradle, and ensure gradle is present in your path.
- Run gradle build eclipse from the project root. This will download all the dependencies and generate the eclipse project. You can optionally do this by importing a gradle project in eclipse.
