Unfortunately not. What are your objections to the additional
dependency on JavaMail?
The only way you will get support for processing multipart messages is
if you add the JavaMail jar file to the classpath of your web app [1].
If you are using an app server like GF then it will already be included.
The alternative is to not use multipart/* at all and instead use
"application/x-www-urlencoded" which is supported without any
additional dependencies. This approach is very useful when you are
sending small character-based content. If you want to send larger
character-based content or binary content then multipart/* is
recommended.
