Jakarta Mail, like other parts of Jakarta EE, is moving to the jakarta.* package namespace.
This is a major change, and so the next release will be Jakarta Mail 2.0.0, which will be
included in Jakarta EE 9. Applications should be able to switch to this new version fairly
easily by just changing all imports that use javax.mail.* to instead use jakarta.mail.*. Note
that SNAPSHOT and Release Candidate versions of Jakarta Mail 2.0.0 are already available.

Enjoy!
