问题
I'm interested in forking gnu.mail.providers.nntp.NNTPFolder, with the Javadoc documentation here, but don't quite understand the dependencies. Apparently, these are:
The current stable release of GNU JavaMail is version 1.1.2, available here.
You also need the current versions of GNU JAF and GNU inetlib to build it.
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpathx/javamail/
What, exactly, do I need to download to build gnu.mail.providers? I can certainly check out the code easily enough, but I don't relish compiling a large chunk of the API. (Yes, it shouldn't be necessary to compile most classes more than once.)
1.) What JAR's do I need to download?
2.) How much of the source code do I need to checkout?
3.) I can check it into github right away, because the licensing boilerplate is in the code?

Here are the JAR's:

Whether it runs correctly remains to be seen. I suppose it has to be build to compile as gnumail-providers.jar but otherwise seems, at first glance, to work fine. I checked out the code as per:
Alternatively you can retrieve the current sources via CVS here, module mail.
