You can either use one of the existing other approaches or you can send
the mail from within your java code.

Yes, persistence is the key feature. Now currently you can use whatever
you want, hibernate, ojb etc. I don't want to create a layer inbetween
and I don't want to force others to use one over the other.
I just started to look at those two and currently I like ojb more. I
guess I will have to throw my ideas for some improvements into the ojb
list and see what happens.
Persistence is a separate concern so I don't want to solve this in Cocoon.
If you or me or anyone else has specific requirements for persistence
than we/you/he should try to get in contact with one of the persistence
development teams.

I donwloaded the latest rc and it took me some hours yesterday night to get
it
running. I ported my test app from hibernate to ojb and it wasn't that easy
because hibernate has some nice features ojb does not have and vice versa.
