I'm using a different approach. Basically, javax.activation allows to
set a custom CommandMap. This allows to inject an OSGi-aware CommandMap.

private void doSend(final Email email) throws EmailException {
  final ClassLoader tccl = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
  try {
    // make sure to use *our* bundle class loader

Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(getClass().getClassLoader());
    CommandMap.setDefaultCommandMap(getMyCommandMap());
    email.send();
  } finally {
    CommandMap.setDefaultCommandMap(null);
    Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(tccl);
  }
}


Then I re-used the CommandMap implementation from Geronimo
(org.apache.geronimo.javax.activation.GeronimoMailcapCommandMap).
