Description wcarson.bugzilla 2022-04-27 02:17:09 UTC 
java/javamail/Makefile currently has JAVA_VERSION=8+, but it in fact will only build with JAVA_VERSION=8. (I tried JAVA_VERSION=11 and JAVA_VERSION=16, and both fail.) Simply removing the + fixed the issue.

    was included in JRE 1.6, but later removed in JRE 11.
