#124 Please migrate to jackrabbit 2.14 API

(forwarded from https://bugs.debian.org/917174 )

It seems that davmail uses long deprecated APIs of jackrabbit. Those are listed in https://jackrabbit.apache.org/api/2.14/deprecated-list.html . The work consists in:
replacing HttpMethod with BaseDavRequest, PropFindMethod with HttpPropfind, etc
fixing remaining issues like the lack of method.getResponseBodyAsStream()

Unfortunately, those deperacted APIs have been removed in jackrabbit 2.18 which is now the version provided in the next Debian stable version buster.

Any chance you would look into this?

Thanks,

Alex

My intial work on this has led me to think moving to httpclient4 should be done at the same time.
