org.apache.javamail is better, as you suggest.

I don't think I'm too keen on using "javamail" for the package, whether or not it was nested below o.a.james. I wouldn't veto it, but here are my concerns:


- it's a trademarked Sun term.
- this code is not a replacement or implementation of JavaMail.
- the code in fact has very little to do with JavaMail:
  a. HostAddress is DNS resolution issue
  b. delivery notices are a *JAF* implementation

I could see a javamail package if we were implementing javax.mail.Store (like an mbox implementation). But as this is just general mail server related code, I don't think using "JavaMail" is right. I just see a lot of potential confusion.

I would like to see it packaged somewhat differently though. Then again, we have other util classes that are useful.
