/usr/share/tomcat8/lib/javax.mail.jar is on disk and in Puppet, but I

Part of the typical Roller installation process is adding mail.jar and
activation.jar to the Tomcat classpath. It appears that perhaps those
files have been deleted from the Roller setup. I'm pretty sure this
was working before on blogs.apache.org <http://blogs.apache.org>.
Maybe Christ T or Gavin M would be able to comment so I added them to
the CC.

However, that appears to be a configuration problem - ie, no mail
