JavaMail jar, where do I put it?

[Vinnie Jenks]

I'm trying to send email from a web form using the JavaMail API....but I'm fairly new to Java and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I'm using NetBeans and I downloaded the JavaMail API from Sun. Where do I put it? How do I "install" it?

I tried putting it in the JDK "lib" directory and in my own site's WEB-INF/lib directory (which is in my CLASSPATH) and I still can't make an "import" reference in my Java class to "javax.mail" - NetBeans still will not recognize it!

Thanks!

Try putting it in <jdk_home>\jre\lib\ext folder
