Description/Features
The plugin has been developed keeping in view of the current limitation in JIRA and after looking into many support issues raised by JIRA users to block notifications based on Issue Types to specific projects. A portlet has been created and the plugin will start working only when the portlet is configured for the first time. Any user can configure the portlet and can see the blocked issue Types of his accessible projects but only JIRA admin has the right to block/unblock the notification.
Upon configuring, the plugin will replace the internal "Mail Listener" provided by JIRA with the "Customized Mail Listener" provided by the plugin which will act as internal Mail Listener. One can view the "Customized Mail Listener" in the "Listeners" section through admin login.
Once the plugin is removed from the JIRA/web-inf/lib , the JIRA provided internal "Mail Listener" will start operating.
Note :
Please copy spring-1.1.5 in the lib folder of source code and put in JIRA/WEB-Inf/lib of your server
