The complication comes in the form of the email service. There are two major protocols,  POP and IMAP.

POP (post office protocols) is a fairly simple hold-and-forward server. The service monitors the internet well-known port for SMTP traffic, receives messages adressed to an account holder then forwardthe message when a client contacts it via POP on the well-known POP port.

IMAP is a little more complicated as it tries to do many of the functions that are often done by a POP client like auto-forwarding. An IMAP client interacts at a less abstract level with the IMAP server.

Either POP or IMAP may be interfaced with Java. The jmail package is a generic interface and the are multiple open source java implementations.

</div>This seems pretty straight forward, and as I Google, I find several
examples of almost the same thing, so I conclude it is a normal and
reasonable situation. However it is causing me more grief to do than I
expected.

Does anyone have a link or code to share?

I want to send an email via my cell phone to a dedicated email address,
and have a Java program process that email and forward the email body to
a data queue for processing.

I am using Eclipse and V5R4. I have RDi available, too.

I appreciate it. Thanks.
