It's up to you. I prefer JK right now, but lots of people are using JK2, and JK2 is where the development team is going. If you decide to use JK, my HOWTOs might help: http://www.johnturner.com, or try the ones at www.galatea.com/flashguides. I don't have HOWTOs for JK2 bookmarked, but I know some are out there.
Regarding virtual hosts, think of it this way: Apache VirtualHost in httpd.conf = Tomcat Host in server.xml Apache DocumentRoot in httpd.conf = Tomcat Context in server.xml So, virtual hosting is pretty straight-forward as far as Tomcat is concerned...for every Apache VirtualHost, there should be a Tomcat Host in server.xml (or at least a Host Alias), and for every DocumentRoot, there should be a corresponding Context, though the actual paths of DocumentRoot and Context may not be identical based on what you are trying to do. In a default Tomcat install, there is one virtual host already setup (localhost) and four Contexts: /examples, /, /admin, and /manager. That should be enough to get you going. If you wanted to add your own, for example, like http://www.host-a.com/my.jsp, you would setup a Host element in server.xml with a name of "www.host-a.com" and then you would setup a ROOT Context ("/"). Lather, rinse, repeat. I don't have any ideas on your SendMailServlet message.
