Tomaz Cerar commented on AS7-1375:
----------------------------------

I have same problem, but in my case it goes for another module (mail subsystem) and no matter how I defined dependencies it does not work. 
as i found out the problem is that activation api is trying to load something that is in javax.mail and that does not work as there is no dependency to javax.mail, even if i add it as dependency it does not work (not sure if circular dependency is allowed at all)

the only way I was able to make it work was a ugly ugly hack with adding mail-xxx.jar to javax.activation.api module as resource in that case it works like a charm :)

here http://forum.springsource.org/showthread.php?69180-Problems-sending-MIME-multipart-mails&s=8b04b3db93b33e93850c493776bb31ec it is a good explanation where the main problem is (javax libs itself) and what can be done

probably the best fix would be patching EE api jars..
