This software provides a JAAS LoginModule that enables authentication against an external IMAP server.
First and foremost, JAAS-Rimap prides itself on its simplicity. Designed to leverage an existing authentication infrastructure with a lightweight network protocol (as opposed to more complex options like LDAP or NTLM/Active Directory), this module is both intuitive and user-friendly.
But beyond its ease-of-use, JAAS-Rimap also stands out thanks to its true platform independence. Unlike other similar projects, it requires no native code, and no special (root/administrator) rights are required. Plus, because it only depends on APIs from the Java Runtime Environment, it's a reliable choice for a wide range of applications.
Whether you're building prototypes or deploying in production, JAAS-Rimap is well-suited to meet your needs. So if you're in the market for a reliable and user-friendly JAAS module, JAAS-Rimap is definitely worth considering.
