Ben Speakmon commented on EMAIL-62:
-----------------------------------
I'm with Dion 100% on meeting the needs of users, but as I said on the list, I
consider the benefits of using 1.4 -- allowing us to use the latest
javamail/activation versions, much better charset support, etc. -- outweigh the
new dependencies. It's better than asking users to stick with the known bugs of
javamail 1.3.1 and being forced to reimplement the charset code in 1.3 when the
majority of people using it are on at least 1.4.
It's not my project, though, and if 1.4 is unacceptable for some other reason,
we'll think of something clever. As Piero says, the important thing is to get
fixes out for what's not working.
