Maven2 standarises on

<groupId>org.jboss.seam</groupId>
<artifactId>jboss-seam-mail</artifactId>
<version>2.0.1.GA</version>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<scope>runtime</scope>

with the common shorthand of: org.jboss.seam:jboss-seam-mail:jar: 
2.0.1.GA:runtime

This produces a jar called jboss-seam-mail.jar.

Be careful, as other projects (e.g. Seam ;-) are using the repo too.
