| <p>James Server provides a mailet container: the email processing is delegated to independent, extensible, pluggable agents |
| specified by the <a href='http://james.apache.org/mailet/api'>Mailet API</a>. Any function |
| which is not already available (from <a href='http://james.apache.org/mailet'>James</a> |
| or from a third party) can be developed.</p> |
| |
| <p>James Server's architecture is modular, component based and offers a <a href="http://martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html">Inversion of Control</a> |
| mail platform. All developments and implementations are based on open technical standards.</p> |
