That's because the javamail spec was written before sun figured out how to separate the spec and implementation so there's a lot of implementation in the spec classes, and sun's javamail comes as one jar. We don't do that with any other specs or implementations. thanks david jencks > > Thoughts? > > -- > Lei Wang (Rex) > rwonly AT apache.org
