Jakarta Mail defines a platform-independent and protocol-independent framework to build mail and messaging applications.

IMPORTANT: The implementation of the Jakarta Mail API, aka JakartaMail (formerly JavaMail), is no longer part of this repository. As part of breaking tight integration between Jakarta Mail API and the implementation, its sources were moved to the new project - Eclipse Angus - and further development continues there. Eclipse Angus is the direct successor of JavaMail/JakartaMail.

See the Jakarta Mail web site.
