I've just verified the tests pass on Soalris 11 x64 with jdk8b123 with message "Action.MAIL is not supported. Testcase is not applicable"

Alexander, please close this bug if this is a dup. Thx.

Looks like a duplicate of JDK-8029263, after b122 it should report "Action.MAIL is not supported. Testcase is not applicable" on x64 Solaris systems.

It is platform specific issue, it doesn't happen on Linux. The issue is being always reproduced on Solaris 11 x64 (checked on stt-30.ru), but I could not reproduce issue on Solaris 11 sparc (stt-74.ru) these tests passed on the host as not applicable, the same result on Solaris 10. The issue doesn't occur with jdk7 on Solaris 11 x64, the same host (stt-30.ru) was used.
