Thilina Gunarathne commented on WSCOMMONS-417: ---------------------------------------------- AFAIK Axis2 ships sun mail & activation implementations. A quick look at Axis2 1.4.1 confirmed this. We got rid of the gerenimo-impl's when Sun changed mail & activation to a favorable license terms. I do not know about the current situation, but back then Gerenimo impl's were not complete. IIRC it was mostly the activation, where they did not support some content-type bindings. +1 for switching completely to Sun mail+activation... > Clarify the status of the JavaMail dependency > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: WSCOMMONS-417 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-417 > Project: WS-Commons > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: AXIOM > Reporter: Andreas Veithen > Priority: Minor > Fix For: Axiom 1.2.9 > > > axiom-api depends on Geronimo's JavaMail implementation.
