[VOTE] Introduce mailet-base product

JAMES 2.3.x contains mailet and mailet-api jars. the contents are now
in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/mailet/api/trunk/. this means
that clearly API classes such as Mailet are mixed in with clearly
utility classes such as GenericMailet. it would be good to release
2.3.x improvements to these classes but IMO this needs to be sorted
out first.

we've talk before about whether a library for utility classes (in
addition to standard-mailets) would be useful. i would like to propose
introducing mailet-base to contain utility classes for the mailet-api.
this would leave standard-mailets free for implementations and
mailet-api free to contain just the API. i propose to judge each
classes in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/mailet/api/trunk/ by
it's merits so i don't want to propose contents at this stage just
principle.

here's my +1

[X] +1 Create mailet-base

I would have preferred to vote on the actual classes to be moved there, 
because I agree that mailet-base is needed, but I don't know if we agree 
on what to move there ;-)

IMO Generic*, RFC2822Headers and the "dates" package should be moved there.

Stefano

+1

On the question to move in the direction of a mailet-building toolkit, I
think that is a good idea.
