Hi Well I've had problems with this before.
As I'm sure you know, the JavaMail API 1.4.1 distribution contains dsn.jar, imap.jar, mailapi.jar, pop3.jar and smtp.jar I was very careful to make sure that I only had the above jars in EITHER the web application's lib directory (WEB-INF/lib) OR tomcat's lib directory (../apache-tomcat-6.0.16/lib) restarting every time I made a change. I just tried again, searching the entire tomcat filesystem each time to ensure that there were no duplicates but still no luck. Unfortunately the mail server admin is being less than helpful so I can't even see what is happening at the other end. Any other ideas ? Thanks anyway lyallex 2008/11/25 David Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Start by making sure there is only one copy of the javamail jar.
