Markus Wiederkehr commented on MIME4J-135:
------------------------------------------

> MimeException - use super(String, Throwable) instead of 
> super(String);initCause(Throwable);.

I think the initCause code comes from a time when super(String, Throwable) was 
not available. Mime4j was a Java 1.4 project until recently.

We can go for super(String, Throwable) instead of initCause() if you prefer but 
IMHO it does not make much difference.

> MimeIOException - make javadoc formatting consistent with MimeException

I would like to see consistent code formatting across the library (maybe by 
adding Eclipse project specific code formatter settings; useful only if all 
developers used Eclipse) but I think that should have to be handled in a 
separate issue.

> The rest is adding a unit test for each class.

Is that worth it? To me this looks more like testing the JRE than testing 
Mime4j.. I mean all our exception classes do is invoke the super constructor 
from IOException or invoke initCause(). But of course the tests don't hurt..
