             Summary: Remove Jakarta Mail and Jakarta Activation-Impl 
Dependencies
                 Key: CXF-9143
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-9143
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core, Simple Frontend
    Affects Versions: 4.1.2
            Reporter: Daniel Meier


We are currently in the process of upgrading our application from Jakarta EE 8 
to Jakarta EE 10 which of course also affects CXF. Our application also uses 
the Jakarta Mail and to make progress during migration I just commented out the 
old dependency on the Sun Mail Implementation ({{com.sun.mail:jakarta.mail}}) 
and wanted to look at it at a later time. I then saw that a mail implementation 
(Apache Angus) was a transitive dependency of CXF. I looked at the source code 
of CXF and it seems like not even the Jakarta Mail API is used outside of test 
code.

A implementation of the Jakarta Activation API (Apache Angus) is also a 
dependency of CXF, even though no SPI classes ({{MailcapRegistry}}, 
{{MailcapRegistryProvider}}, {{MimeTypeRegistry}}, 
{{MimeTypeRegistryProvider}}) are used.

Would it be possible to remove those transitive Dependencies?
