I work in a group project and after every checkout
I have to remove and add the javamail api..(because the path is relative) how can i make it IN the Project folder?

This is how i add the library :

  1. right click on librarys folder
  2. Add/jar Folder..
  3. Choose the mail.jar

But when my collegue checks this out... he get's problems. How can i make the path absolute ?

This worked for me: Project Properties -> Libraries -> Add JAR/Folder, and in that dialog there is a "Reference as" option. Choose "Relative Path" and then locate your library.
