Configuring James server

Just use sudo when you need root access and you will get it. You use your login password and you will get no feedback in the terminal as you type, but just keep typing and hit ENTER.

if i use sudo it gives the following error

prasad@prasad-OptiPlex-755:~/Software/james/james-2.3.2/bin$ sudo sh run.sh
[sudo] password for prasad:
ERROR: JAVA_HOME not found in your environment.

Please, set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of the Java Virtual Machine you want to use.

but if run it with out sudo it finds the JAVA_HOME variable and it gives
error like permissions denied for pop and smtp the error is more lines so i
didn't include it so how can give root access to the james server(email
server)
