Hi,

I'm trying to listen to a pop3 inbox from a JBoss AS 5.1 server. A (seam) mail listener configured in ejbproject.jar/META-INF/jboss.xml

{code:xml}
<jboss>
 <enterprise-beans>
   <message-driven>
     <ejb-name>SomeMailService</ejb-name>
     <activation-config>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>mailServer</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.mailServer}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>port</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.port}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>debug</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.debug}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>mailFolder</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.mailFolder}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>storeProtocol</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.storeProtocol}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>flush</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.flush}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>userName</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.userName}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>password</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>${mail.receiver.password}</activation-config-property-value>
     </activation-config-property>
     </activation-config>
     <resource-adapter-name>mail-ra.rar</resource-adapter-name>
   </message-driven>
 </enterprise-beans>
{code}

The properties are defined in ${JBOSS_HOME}/server/default/conf/mail.receiver.properties and loaded via ${JBOSS_HOME}/server/default/deploy/system-properties.xml

{code:xml}
<mbean code="org.jboss.varia.property.SystemPropertiesService" 
     name="jboss:type=Service,name=SystemProperties">
    <attribute name="URLList">
      ./conf/mail.receiver.properties
    </attribute>
</mbean>
{code}

Upon server startup, properties are correctly loaded :
{code}
12:00:07,902 INFO  [SystemPropertiesService] Loaded system properties from: file:/P:/opt/JBoss/jboss-as-5.0.1.GA-jdk6/server/default/conf/mail.receiver.properties
{code}

BUT, it seems the mailListener isn't aware of that fact :

{code}12:15:22,321 ERROR [MailActivation] Failed to execute folder check, spec=MailActivationSpec(mailServer=${mail.receiver.server}, storeProtocol=${mail.receiver.storeProtocol}, mailFolder=${mail.receiver.mailFolder}, pollingInterval=60000, messageSelector=null, userName=${mail.receiver.userName}, maxMessages=1, debug=false, starttls=false, port=0){code}

I've checked in another class, the system properties are actually loaded :
<code>System.err.println("${mail.receiver.mailFolder}:" + System.getProperty("mail.receiver.mailFolder"));</code> correctly returns INBOX

Setting properties via <attribute name="Properties"> in system-properties doesn't work either.

Passing properties from the command line work as expected ( -Dmail.receiver.server=someserver) -hopefully-

I'm missing something with system-properties.xml? Seems like a bug to me.

regards,

Fred Bricon
