Hi,
Every port that uses java/javamail currently installs openjdk8 as dependency,
because javamail defines openjdk8 as run dependency. This also happens if the
actual application uses for example openjdk21.
I think, as javamail is a library and not an application itself it should not
have a run-dependency on Java. As it doesn't run on its own.
It will always use the java version of the application that uses javamail.
