Cocoon 2.2 uses Maven to automatically download the Sun JARs from

But as I understand it, this is not a problem with the Sun libraries,
but with a build process that includes files it should include, ie the
geronimo jar files. So I am confused as to how maven is used.
The geronimo files are shipped with the Cocoon 2.1.x distribution
*because* the Sun JARs cannot be but the JavaMail APIs must still be
available to compile against. The geronimo JARs provide those APIs (so
it compiles), but not the implementation (so it doesn't function at
runtime). Hence if you want to actually use the mail functionality in
your Cocoon app you have to replace the geronimo JARs with the Sun JARs.
Since Maven can legally retrieve the actual Sun JARs directly to compile
against, the geronimo ones are no longer needed. Problem solved.
