   At long last I've whipped up a web page for 
   JavaMail. You can find it in HTML CVS at 
   software/classpathx/javamail.html. 

Thanks for doing this Ben! It's a great start!

FYI you can also see the pages by looking at:
 http://www.gnu.org/software/classpathx/javamail.html


  Please take a look-see and let me know about 
  changes/improvements/etc.

Can you change the banner so it's the same as the JAF page?
 o align the classpathx logo to the right
 o put the text "GNU Javamail Project" in H2

Can you change the link for "free programs that implement the java
virtual machine" to point to:
  /software/java/java.html". That page maintains information about
the various projects like Kaffe and GCC.

Can you add a link to "through CVS" in the download section so that
it links directly to the savannah CVS page for javamail?

Is the information in the providers list ok? AFAIK all dog's
providers (POP, Mbox and NNTP) are complete.


   I'm thinking that the developers working on 
   each service provider should maintain the 
   page(s) for that provider. We can link them from
   javamail.html and they can get real nice and 
   technical if that suits their purpose. 
   That way we won't scare casual users. :)

Once we've got some user's involved I would like to get them to write
documentation for the providers. I don't think dog or I has the time
to do it.

I think the page you've done is a great start... I hope we can evolve
things from there.


  I'll be looking at the SMTP code this weekend to 
  figure out a plan of action. Let me know if there's 
  anything that anyone feels I should know.

Cool. Keep it up!
