The needed libraries are not checked until the compile process, JFYI. The questions was asked some month ago for a Debian package as well. I tried to build Open-Xchange some time ago with GNU Classpath, but specially for mail, necessary methods and functions are just missing. We are just providing a collaboration framework and that is our focus. This means, if the functionality is covered by any other package than Sun's Javamail package one can build OX with this packages. Currently - AFAIK - this is not possible. The other question is what you mean with "extensive free Java tools" ... for some ppl. also packages offered by Sun/IBM/Bea are "free" ... By reading your website i have to mention that we have working environments (and test systems of course) with IBM JDK as well and i know admins who are using the BEA JDK to resolve errors.
