Jim McCabe updated EMAIL-74:
----------------------------

    Description: 
I would like more control over the MimeMessage instance that is created by 
Email.java in buildMimeMessage().

Currently it simply instantiates one directly - new MimeMessage().  It would be 
nice if it called a protected method called something like createMimeMessage() 
so that I could override that with my own subclass.

Why would I want to subclass it?  So I can set the Message-Id on the outgoing 
message.  See this link:

   http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#msgid

I've got my own subclass ready but I have no way to hook into Email.java to use 
it.

I would like more control over the MimeMultipart instance that is created by
