Hi,

I keep on getting this error and don't know what to do with it. I have one servlet (see code below) which creates a MailServlet object and calls the MailServlet to send the mail. I have placed the mail.jar and activation.jar in the lib dir of my web-application.
Hope you can help:

ERROR MSG:
----------

Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
MailServlet mail = new MailServlet();

I did some experimenting and found that Tomcat will give that error if a class is in a directory structure that does not match the package structure.

Probably MailServlet is missing or has an incorrect &quot;package&quot; declaration at the top.
