activation.jar / Tomcat 5.5 / JDK 5

Hi,

I've seen this mentioned before but no solution.

I'm trying to use javamail with the above set up but I keep getting "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/activation/DataSource".

I have the activation.jar and have tried it in common/lib, shared/lib and WEB-INF/lib with no success and it is not a permissions problem. 

Is it possible that this jar does not work with JDK 1.5? Any ideas on how to solve my problem as it's holding up my migration to Tomcat 5.5

Ta
Matt
