The (unsupported) compilation target 'gnumail' compiles the ${src} directory
(source), including the files
gnu/mail/util/*.java
gnu/mail/handler/*.java
javax/mail/**/*.java
The classpath is mail.classpath, defined as
${src}
${activation.jsr}
${inetlib.jar}
The compilation target 'providers' compile to the ${src} directory, including
the files
gnu/mail/treeutil/*.java
gnu/mail/providers/*.java
gnu/mail/providers/smtp/*.java (unless disable-smtp)
gnu/mail/providers/imap/*.java "
gnu/mail/providers/pop3/*.java "
gnu/mail/providers/nntp/*.java "
gnu/mail/providers/mbox/*.java "
gnu/mail/providers/maildir/*.java "
The classpath is provider.classpath,
mail.classpath
${gnumail.jar}
So, for compilation, providers needs gnumail.jar, but not vice-versa.
