Re: Your project uses a possibly LGPL dependency: com.icegreen.greenmail:greenmail
Thanks for letting us know Steve. In Oozie, it's only included as a test scope dependency and used only for unit tests, so I think we're good here.

Re: Your project uses a possibly LGPL dependency: com.icegreen.greenmail:greenmail
Hi Alan, sure, i am glad if i can help you porting the tests. Its beta because its new and not really proven. If you don't have a problem with that there it is a chance for the lib to mature which i would grab.
