Mark Symons commented on EMAIL-203:
-----------------------------------
[~michael-o] , how about switching {{javax.mail}} to {{jakarta.mail}} now...
but sticking with the last 1.x version, thus maintaining usage of javax imports
(which only changed to jakarta with 2.0.0).
Currently, {{javax.mail}} allows upgrade from 1.5.4 to 1.6.2. Switching to
{{jakarta.mail}} per the above would allow upgrade to 1.6.7... released in late
2021, 2.5 years after 1.6.2 (and 6 years after currently-used 1.5.4).
