Juhan Aasaru updated JAMES-3395:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently examples define james-project as its parent:

[https://github.com/apache/james-project/blob/master/examples/pom.xml#L23]

This is why some of the dependencies currently get loaded from the parent. For 
example custom-mailets require dependency apache-mailet-api which is not 
explicitly defined in its pom but resolved from the parent.

I suggest removing reference to parent from pom.xml of examples and adding the 
required dependencies directly to individual example pom-s.

Example scenario: someone wants create its own custom mailets then this person 
can take custom-mailets as the foundation without the need to depend on whole 
james-server. 

 

Secondly - examples should not be under the package "org.apache.james". This 
can introduce errors where example code uses something from James that has 
package level access. I propose moving examples to "org.apache.examples.james" 
package

 

I would like to work on this.
