From where, though? I had volunteered to do it, and worked away at

This is not a given. Geronimo is a new project, there is great scope for new code ending up being orphaned if a community of interested people doesn't gel around it, there is no guarantee that this will happen.

I agree there is that risk.

That said, I believe the James community would be fertile ground to take over responsibility of the ASF-licensed implementation. I'm planning to push to adopt Alex's implementation into James once it's appropriate. In fact, I was wondering how the activation.jar implementation is coming. :)

We've discussed creating a subproject in James to maintain ASF-licensed JavaMail implementations, which historically has only really meant stores and session (providers). If it can include the core implementation as well, so be it.
