[PJUG Javamail] JMS without the installer (win32)

[Gera Shegalov]

Hi Chris,

it is is not clear what product you are trying to install. JMS is a
Java API to a reliable messaging infrastructure. It is up to a JMS
provider, whether a native or pure java code is used underneath.
Similar to JDBC drivers: thin vs thick. With a 100% java-based JMS
client, your 'hack' plan will work.
