I think this is solved as long as we accept to bind to jdk1.4+ and to ask
the users download bcprov in order to use the SMIME mailets (it is really
easy as bouncycastle directly provide the jar downloads and it should be
placed in james/lib).

I'm "almost" sure that bcmail does not include crypto code and we now only
need it to build.
