Hello,

Given the newly written JPAMailRepository (cf JAMES-2656) I propose to remove (after a deprecation cycle) JDBCMailRepository.

Rationals:
 - We now have a better alternative
 - It's set up is undocumented, people that recently tried complained
 - Reliance on Java serialization
 - Creates confusion with other mail repositories.
 - Several bugs are known: limits on attributes serialization, no null sender support, amongst others
 - Incurs a maintenance cost...
 - Last meaningful contribution was 3 years ago.

Users relying on it can adopt the newly introduced JPAMailRepository. Existing data can be migrated via re-processing (and a bit of dedicated configuration).

Thoughts?

Best regards,

Benoit
