It ran perfectly until a few months ago when suddenly it stopped sending email. I was using the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Jakarta</st1:City></st1:place> mail-1.1 taglib and it looked like it worked but nothing went out. I started using the mailer2 taglib and that finally gave me some errors (below). Even the examples don’t work.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Initially I had this on both my development and production servers. I hacked away at the dev server replacing jar files and restarting and eventually it all went away. I then reconciled that with my production server and nothing works. I am sure it is some kind of version conflict as it showed up as quickly as it went away.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I’ve been beating my head on this for a couple of months now with no progress at all.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Can someone please suggest an approach to debug this? I’m at a total loss.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Thanks<o:p></o:p> Peter<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> The code as follows:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <%@ page contentType="text/html"
