The Sun Java™ Messaging Server is Sun’s highly scalable and robust messaging (e-mail) server software.

Sun’s Messaging Server could potentially be the most widely deployed commercial e-mail server on the planet with claims of 150 Million mailboxes deployed world-wide (mostly by ISPs, Telcos, Universities, government and cable tv broadband providers) -- Source David Ferris Newsletter.

Sun’s Java™ Messaging Server has a long history, drawing technology from Sun Internet Mail Server (SIMS), Netscape Messaging Server (NMS), and Innosoft’s PMDF. In addition to the Mail Server’s three parents, the software has undergone multiple brand naming changes: iPlanet Messaging Server, SunONE Messaging Server, and now the Sun Java Messaging Server. The code base has been carried on throughout these minor brand changes with only feature enhancements and bug fixes.

From 2003 to 2006, the Messaging Server was bundled as part of Sun’s Java Enterprise System bundle of Internet/Intranet server software. Later in 2006, the Messaging Server will be re-packaged as part of smaller bundled called the Sun Java Communication Suite. This suite of software products will include Sun Java Calendar Server, Sun Java Instant Messaging Server, and Sun Java Communications Express. Supporting server software fo the Messaging Server includes Sun Java Directory Server, Sun Java Access Manager, and Sun Java Web Server. The supporting software will be included in the Communications Suite bundle with limited-use licence rights.

The Messaging Server is supported to run on multiple operating systems including Sun's Solaris, Red Hat, HP-UX, and Windows.

Sun Java Communications Suite - Delivers a rich set of communication and collaboration services messaging, real-time collaboration/internet chat, calendaring, and scheduling at less than half the cost of alternative solutions. more
