Well I got around it by putting classpathx and javamail in the same 
"plugin". An annoying restriction, but I can live with it. Ideally the 
API would allow specifying the classloader.

However I noticed that the classpathx implementation of mbox requires 
the gnumail.jar gnu javamail implementation. That makes it awkward to 
use with the Sun javamail. I have to include gnu javamail even though I 
don't want to use much of it. It also means I have to be real careful 
with library order. Shouldn't this library be split up into two parts?
