I solved this problem as follows.

Geronimo by default has environment variables defined like this:

17:20:17,313 DEBUG [Daemon] java.endorsed.dirs=c:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib\endorsed;C:\Program
Files\informiam\geronimo-1.1.1\lib\endorsed
17:20:17,313 DEBUG [Daemon] java.ext.dirs=c:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib\ext;C:\Program
Files\informiam\geronimo-1.1.1\lib\ext

I put the mail .jar and activation .jar into Java's ext directory in
c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib\ext.

Now I can start Geronimo with an SMTPAppender defined in
server-log4j.properties.
