There's a quicker way but I'll go thru the correct steps (one more steps
only):
1. Create a <resource-ref> tag in your component's assembly descriptor
(web.xml, ejb-jar.xml, application-client.xml):
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>myMailSession</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.mail.Session</res-type>
</resource-ref>
2. Look up the value from within your components code:
Session session = (Session)new
InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/env/myMailSession");
That's it, from there on you just use it as a normal (mail-)Session (if you
want to change the instance it points to
if you've got multiple sessions defined then you edit the
resource-ref-mapping tag in the components deployment file,
orion-*.xml).
