The 1.4.4 release contains several bug fixes and enhancements,
including the following significant changes:
- Ability to cache POP3 messages on disk.
- In-memory POP3 message cache now uses soft references.
- NTLM authentication support is now integrated, no longer need
jcifs.jar.
- SASL authentication support for SMTP.
- New demo classes showing how to handle old non-MIME Outlook messages.
Note that starting with this release we've adopted a new Maven naming
approach. The new approach is described here:

As a result the Maven group and artifact IDs for the main JavaMail
implementation are now com.sun.mail/javax.mail, and the main jar
file is named "javax.mail.jar".
