importing javax.mail.* from within JSP servlets

[Giorgio Brajnik <gi...@dimi.uniud.it>]

Hi.

I'm trying to write a jsp that imports javax.mail.* but jasper complains 
with 
"Package javax.mail not found in import.
import javax.mail.*;"

I tried to put the i2ee.jar file almost everywhere, including

..../tomcat/lib
....<my_application_context>/lib
/usr/java/jdk1.3.0_01/lib/
in the classpath environment var used by tomcat.sh

What should I do?

Thanks a lot.

I'm using Apache+tomcat on linux, but not the j2ee.

What is the "i2ee.jar" file, and what does it contain?  (You can find out, if
you're curious, by typing the following command):

    jar tvf i2ee.jar

You need the "mail.jar" file from the JavaMail release, and the "activation.jar"
from the Java Activation Framework release, on your classpath.  You can get
these releases from <http://java.sun.com/products/javamail>.
