Re: [xwiki-devs] [Contrib] xwiki-application-mailarchive

Hi Vincent, 2013/2/3 Vincent Massol <vincent(a)massol.net> Nothing, except by me some better brains, so I don't forget my GPG passphrase next time ;-)

See discussion http://xwiki.markmail.org/search/?q=mstor#query:mstor+page:1+mid:owjykurnlz… Basically, I need mstor library to create a Javamail store (to backup/reload emails), but this library comes with extra transitive dependencies, that conflict with XE. I solved that by publishing that lib along my project, without the conflicting (and useless) transitive deps.
