Sharon,
You'll probably have your question answered by others, but I had the
same problem starting out with James.
Last I looked, Mailets can\not be installed by dropping them in the lib
path. I had to dig through the archives after spinning my wheels for
several hours with the same problem you ran into... James cannot find
your mailet's class file and thus James craps out... Painful, as it must
sound you have to compile your mailet, and add it to james block archive
(james-root/dist/apps/james/blocks/james.bar.) You might even go as far
as adding your new james.bar to the james.sar (james-
root/dist/apps/james.sar) so that the sar can be unpacked when first
run, and thus the james path created under james-root/dist/apps.
The best way to do all this is use Jakarta-Ant to help automate the
process. This is what I did. Oh, and use NetBeans. :-) I love their
Ant integration.
Cheers,
-Michael
