Description

Attempting to run the AXIS tests against the Geronimo javamail code uncovered multiple problems. Among the problems uncovered were:

• No JAF handlers for MimeMultipart objects (or Html and Message, which the Sun version also supports).
• No processing of x-java-fallback-entry parameters on mailcap file records.
• No support for fallback handlers in handler resolution.
• Incorrect serialization of ContentType/Parameter list objects.
• Incorrect processing of MIME identifiers when resolving content-handlers.

These patches correct these problems, but there is another problem with the build (GERONIMO-1618) that will prevent these fixes from becoming fully operational.
