             Bug #: 5687
           Summary: ContentType.toString and ContentDisposition.toString
                    should never return null
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: javamail
           Version: 1.4.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: internet

The general contract of the Object.toString method is that it always
returns a non-null value. The JavaMail spec says that null can be
returned in error cases. This should be changed to always return a
value.

This is, of course, an incompatible change, but I think it's justified
to match the general contract of toString.
