[mpt] working :-)

mpt (mail protocol tester) now runs basic smoke tests (connecting to
the IMAP server and testing capability command is basic but it's easy
to add more later) against both deployments. it's a micro-library but
i like it :-)

i'd like to push on now to tidy up what i've done so far so that other
people can find it easier to play around with later (hopefully some
people might). in particular, i'd like to add a subsite at
http://james.apache.org/mpt

i'm also thinking about following mime4j by switching to java 1.5 but
by supporting a retroweaver version is anyone wants 1.4

opinions? objections? comments?

I had no time to look at it, but I'm fine with a subsite as I saw you
already documented some stuff.

I'd go with 1.5 and ignore 1.4 at all. It's a test tool... no one should
use java 1.4 in production anymore.. if they use 1.4 in their
development environment they don't deserve our attention ;-)
