I would be pretty easy:
- extract the zip file.
- find javamail-xxx.jar file.
- add the jar file to your project's classpath.

Note this information on the JavaMail page: Besides the JavaMail JAR, you'll also need to include the JAR file for the JavaBeans Activation Framework.

Only if you're using Java 5.0 or before. Since Java 6 javax.activation is included in the JRE.
