Hi, I have a webapp, running in JBoss AS7.1.1.Final.  In it, I am attempting to send an email, but am getting javax.naming.NoInitialContextException when trying to lookup SMTP:

| 
 | 
 | 
 | InitialContext ic = new InitialContext(); |
| 
 | 
 | 
 | Session mailSession = (Session)ic.lookup("java:/Mail"); |

my standalone.xml contains:

        <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:naming:1.1"/>

        <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:mail:1.0">
                                        <mail-session debug="true" jndi-name="java:/Mail" from=" mailto:test at test.com test at test.com" >
                                                       <smtp-server outbound-socket-binding-ref="mail-smtp"/>
                                        </mail-session>
                         </subsystem>

the complete error is:

javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file:  java.naming.factory.initial

Anyone have any idea what is going on here?

thanks, Mitchell
