Description

Hi. The DSN package of the (since years, why....whatever...it's working good) "experimental" DSN package is not actualized.
There seams to be a new version is released with angus mail 2.0.2 (see: https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/angus-mail/ for direct download) but it isn't found at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.sun.mail/dsn.
Futhermore there comes a great inkompatibility at runtime with the new package. The package name has changed from com.sun.mail.dsn.* to org.eclipse.angus.mail.dsn*. Would be nice to document this in the release notes.
thx and best regards
Marco

Research direction

Start with the DSN artifact at the Maven Repository URL and compare it with the Angus Mail 2.0.2 download linked in the issue. Check how the package changed from com.sun.mail.dsn.* to org.eclipse.angus.mail.dsn*, then verify what release-note or artifact update is needed. Done means the availability and runtime incompatibility are addressed or clearly documented.
