Javamail build

Hi All,

The maven pom.xml for javamail defines a jdk range 1.5-1.6 exclusive. I have 1.6.0_13 and it compiles fine.

Are there known issues using a jdk > 1.5?

Thanks

 Glenn

I  believe that is there to ensure the javamail code remains compatible 
with a java 1.4.2 runtime.  That places a restriction on the features 
that can be used in the code (e.g, no generics).
