Markus Wiederkehr updated MIME4J-85:
------------------------------------

    Attachment: mime4j-java5.patch

proposed patch includes:

* inferred Generics types
* enhanced for-loops
* @Override annotations
* an enum Mode as replacement for the constants in MessageUtils
* changed return type of MimeEntityConfig.clone() to MimeEntityConfig

the last point could be changed to a copy constructor but that would be outside 
of the scope of this patch.

> Upgrade source to Java 5

> The Mime4j API would greatly benefit from Java 5 language features, most of 
> all Generics.
> For backward compatibility with JVM 1.4 the generated jar file could be 
> transformed using the Retrotranslator Maven Plugin. If this compatibility is 
> required new features of the Java 5 API (such as StringBuilder) cannot be 
> used.
