10 March 2009 - Apache Mime4J (JAMES) 0.6 released

Apache Mime4J is a flexible MIME parsing library written in Java. SAX, DOM and pull parsing styles are supported.

The 0.6 release brings another round of API enhancements and performance optimizations. There has been a number of notable improvements in the DOM support. MIME stream parser is expected to be 50% faster when line counting is disabled. Please also note that as of this release Mime4j requires a Java 1.5 compatible runtime

Notes
-----
* Mime4j API is still considered unstable and is likely to change in future releases
* DOM support has known limitations and some roundtrip issues remain to be resolved
* Some low level functions are available only in the pull parser (recommended for advanced users)
