It actually makes no difference what the JAR is called because Ant probably puts all the JARs in the classpath, so it's the path structure of each JAR that's important. As long as their is a javax.activation.DataSource class, it should be found.
I'm going to dig in to see the actual class implementation and see what could be wrong. I did try copying mail-1.4.jar to mail.jar, but no go with that. On 6/12/07, Scot P. Floess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
