I'm having a similar problem:
I'm attempting to upgrade from v2.0a3 to v2.1.1.
I've got some custom mailets in a jar, and I've tried putting that jar in a
variety of places (including in the CLASSPATH, and commandline of
Phoenix -cp option) without success.
At James startup, I always get:
ERROR 2003-02-20 17:44:58.632 [Phoenix.] (): Component named
"spoolmanager" failed to pass through the Initialization stage. (Reason:
org.apache.mailet.MailetException: Could not load mailet
(JDBCBayesianAnalysis);
nested exception is:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Requested mailet not found:
JDBCBayesianAnalysis. looked in [, org.apache.james.transport.mailets.]).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
