Can you help me, how to configure Maven POM file so mail-1.4.jar will be included in my bundle jar so OSGi service could use it?

    I would advise to not include the mail jar in your bundle. The better way is to simply install the mail.jar in the osgi runtime.

    You have to make sure you have two things in place to make this work:

    1. Make sure you import the required package in the manifest of your own bundle. Normally simply using the maven bundle plugin with defaults does this but you should check the resulting Manifest
    2. Deploy the mail.jar into your OSGi runtime. If you are using apache karaf then simply do:
      mvn install -s mvn:javax.mail/mail/1.4.4 if not then the jar below should help. It contains a correct Manifest file for OSGi deployment http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails|javax.mail|mail|1.4.4|jar
