To cut a long story short, Claude is correct the "official" way is to
repack the sar.
However the JAMES_HOME/lib hack is available but a hack, and not guarenteed
to always work.
We have applied a new method, which *is* guaranteed to work, but only in
newer versions, I forget which, which is to put classes in
JAMES_HOME/apps/james/SAR-INF/classes and jars in
JAMES_HOME/apps/james/SAR-INF/lib
But this wasn't available when Claude wrote the article.

Subject: James Newbie Q: Re-packaging
the SAR or copy to JAMES_HOME/lib?

Please respond to

Hello:
I was working through the IBM mailet articles by Claude Duguay
(Available/Unavailable mailets). When deploying mailets, the article
says that re-packaging the SAR is the "only viable way" to deploy new
mailets to James. I followed the instructions on the James site about
simply placing them in the JAMES_HOME/lib dir (along with some other
JARs from the james.sar file) and everything seems to work fine.
Am I missing something? Why would someone go to all the trouble of
re-packaging the SAR instead of just being able to deploy their jars to
the /lib dir?

Thank You,
