ATM only the SMIME mailets are included in the notification

IIRC java does not contain strong crypt out-of-the-box so i'm not sure
whether a notification is needed

the OpenPGP/MIME stuff is incomplete but the S/MIME works. i had been
thinking about cutting an S/MIME release then merging OpenPGP/MIME in.
this would allow the versions in the 2.3.x codestream to be deleted.

not sure: this is a wider area for discussion

ATM most of the mailets are packaged under org.apache.james. repacking
them would be logical but would break compatibility.
