Hi,

I want to use the JavaMail API, but give a gentle error message if it's not installed, and point the user to the download page. But I can't put my "import ..." statement on top of my java file, because that will fail if there is no JavaMail API, right? So how do I get out of this Catch-22?

execute Class.forName("javax.mail.Message"); and catch the ClassNotFoundException
