Description

The SocketFetcher used by Javamail 1.4 does no more use reflection to call the socket creation method on the SocketFactory provided. It instead cast the created object to SocketFactory.
Out SocketFactory does not implement extends the SocketFactory class so it does not connect and fail to send mails.

The socketFactory is only used when a bindAddress is specified, but this should be fixed asap.
