Sorry, the previous email went out too early. Trying again... 2006/1/2, Jacek Laskowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > 2006/1/2, Alan D. Cabrera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > That's the $64 question.

// // This source code implements specifications defined by the Java // Community Process. In order to remain compliant with the specification // DO NOT add / change / or delete method signatures! // It made me think about the source code and its origins. As far as I remember, we're not allowed to use JavaMail source code and merely copy it over to our code. It's against the license, isn't it? What I can't recall is the list of allowed materials we /are/ allowed to use to build our own implementation. What is on the list? I guess it's javadoc and the spec itself. Anything else? How could happen that the above statement (This source code implements...) found its place in /our/ code? Cheers, Jacek
