First, the problem is not the JAR file not being found. The problem is that
JavaMail is not able to load the javamail.properties file, which defines all
"providers". You might try placing the javamail.properties file on your
classpath somewhere, or you may have to manually load it into the System
properties. I once looked at how that file was loaded, but have since
forgotten how it was done.
