Thx all for the responses.
Yes, it does sound like an .ear/.war, but I don't have a web.xml file and
it is not a web based app destined for a container. Actually, I am trying
to deploy an app to an Apache JAMES server. I need a bunch of my own
classes as well as many dependent jars put into a couple of different
directories under JAMES. I am ok with having to manually put the files in
place, but I need to get M2 to package them all up into a single "tarball"
so I can 1) move it to the server, 2) get everything I need in one file for
later extraction.
Someone mentioned using the assembly plugin, which I tried, but couldn't
get to work. I will try again and post the error I am getting.
Great suggestions, thx for the help everyone!

Sounds suspiciously like an EAR to me. If you ignore the
META-INF/application.xml, it's a zip file with all your jars packaged
together. That said, if you're "deploying" to a server, chances are you
would really want to use the actual deployed artifact type (war is
another that will do this).
