Description

The nifi-bootstrap module depends on javax.mail 1.4.7 to support email notifications of bootstrap events. The javax.mail 1.4.7 dependency does not support recent versions of the TLS protocol, and Jakarta Mail 2 supersedes the javax.mail dependency. This dependency and associated references should be updated following the same approach as recent updates for the PutEmail processor
