I've never gotten "autofill" (autoindentation?) to work properly on comments. Since cc-mode handles indentation of Java source files, include jde-mode, which extends but does not modify cc-mode, I have assumed that the problem is with cc-mode. You could easily verify this by temporarily commenting out the JDE in your .emacs file, loading a Java file, and trying to indent a comment block. If Emacs indents the comments correctly, then the problem is with cc-mode and you should send a bug report to the Emacs maintainers, using the Help->Send Bug Report command. If not, send a bug report to me and I will try to reproduce and debug the problem. - Paul
