== Using SendMailTransfomer with Cocoon 2.1.8 ==
The SendMailTransformer needs the [http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/ 
JavaMail] and [http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/glasgow/jaf.html 
JavaBeans Activation Framework (JAF)] API's from Sun to work. Add them to 
WEB-INF/lib. Remove geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-rc5.jar and 
geronimo-spec-activation-1.0.2-rc4.jar from WEB-INF/lib.

=== Simple example ===
Add this to the transformers in your sitemap
{{{
<map:transformer name="sendmail" 
src="org.apache.cocoon.mail.transformation.SendMailTransformer"/>
}}}

Add this in a pipeline in your sitemap
{{{
<map:match pattern="mailme">
    <map:generate src="sendmail.xml"/>
    <map:transform type="sendmail"/>
    <map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>
}}}

Example of sendmail.xml. The values in this document override those from the 
sitemap. You can remove them here if you have set them in the sitemap.
{{{
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<document xmlns:email="http://apache.org/cocoon/transformation/sendmail";>
    <email:sendmail>
        <email:smtphost>my.smtp.host</email:smtphost>
        <email:smtpport>25</email:smtpport>
        <email:from>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email:from>
        <email:to>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email:to>
        <email:subject>My first mail</email:subject>
        <email:body>The body of the mail</email:body>
    </email:sendmail>
</document>
}}}

=== Advanced examples and parameters ===
See the 
[http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/apidocs/org/apache/cocoon/mail/transformation/SendMailTransformer.html
 APIdoc]

=== Problem ===
It doesn't matter which SMTP-Host (or SMTP-Port) you fill in, you get the 
following error (unless you have a mailserver running on your machine on port 
25):
{{{
"Could not connect to SMTP host: localhost, port: 25 
(java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect)"
}}}

=== Solution ===
Cocoon uses geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-rc5.jar and 
geronimo-spec-activation-1.0.2-rc4.jar (or the version that is included with 
your distribution) instead of Sun JavaMail and JAF. Remove 
geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-rc5.jar and geronimo-spec-activation-1.0.2-rc4.jar 
from WEB-INF/lib and restart Cocoon. [[BR]][[BR]]
If this still doesn't work remove geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-rc5.jar from 
/lib/optional and remove it in lib/jars.xml (or comment it with <!-- -->). Copy 
src/blocks/mail/mocks from Cocoon 2.1.7 to the same directory in Cocoon 2.1.8 
and rebuild Cocoon. Then add Sun JavaMail and Activation into WEB-INF/lib and 
remove geronimo-spec-activation-1.0.2-rc4.jar.
