JetSpeed 1.3a1: account mail confirmation - not configured properly?

Hello,
   I have tried installing Jetspeed 3 times, and must have vapor lock in 
the brain. I get everything working, except the email confirmation with 
the secret key.

Here's my config:

Redhat 7.0 (several up2dates, and custom installs, but mostly clean)
Tomcat 3.2.1
JetSpeed 1.3a1
Apache 1.3.14-3 (shouldn't matter, right?)

I am on a masqueraded network, 192.168.x.x, machine name celery7

When I browse to http://celery7:8080/jetspeed
Lo and Behold, Success! I can log in with either of the default accounts.

If I try to change an account I get:
at 
org.apache.jetspeed.modules.actions.SendConfirmationEmail.doPerform(SendConfirmationEmail.java:83)
<snip>

When I try to create a new account, I get the confirmation page, but no 
email.


I have sendmail running on my localhost, and can send mail locally 
between accounts. I do not have 'real' mail configured, only the local 
accounts. I saw the note about Windows users needing James, and had even 
installed that at one point, but it neither seemed necessary for me, nor 
useful. I have also tried entering my ISP smtp address, figuring that my 
local sendmail addy might not be suffient.

It looks like there should be searchable archive of this list somewhere, 
but the only I found seems to have been shut down in February(?), and I 
could only find similar questions, no answers.

 From what I can deduce, the HyperSonic database is preconfigured, and 
started (or accessed) by tomcat out of the box, no config/startup 
needed. I assume this, because I did not see anything mentioned about it 
in the docs. It seems that
TurbineResources.properties
is the only file I would need to look in for this issue, and pretty much 
only need to change mail.server to a valid smtp server (localhost or 
mail.my_isp.com).

I see nothing in the mail logs about any mail activity, and I do see 
what looks like the servlet in jasper.log:2001-04-15 08:45:37 - 
JspEngine --> /WEB-INF/templates/jsp/layouts/html/default.jsp

Does anyone have any suggestions, or where in the FAQ/docs I missed 
something critical?
TIA

Also...

I found JAMES was putting all my notifications in a SPAM folder. What I
found was that in the JAMES.conf file, there is an entry <servername> which
appears to be used by the anti-relay mechanism. So, for example, if you set
JR to confirm.email.from=verifier@mydomain.com, then JAMES.conf should
include <servername>mydomain.com</servername>

Look also that the entries are not duplicated in TR.p 
(TurbineResources.properties).

As you said, there is no mail activity. Could it be that your sendmail 
(or james) is not accepting relay from the "from" address you are using?

I had this problem until I changed my sendmail configuration.

Try these mail archive,

http://jakarta.apache.org/mail/jetspeed-dev/
http://jakarta.apache.org/mail/jetspeed-user/

Make sure that James or another mail server is up and running on your
localhost, and that you have
all of these entries in your JR.p:

#########################################
# Registration mail support             #
#########################################
mail.server=localhost
confirm.email.from=jetspeed@domain
confirm.email.name=Jetspeed
confirm.email.subject=Jetspeed registration
