IllegalArgumentException problem

Note: my mail server is messed up, sorry if you get this twice.

I subclassed a Jlabel in the class below. When it reaches
this.setVerticalAlignment(MailLabel.LEFT), it throws an
IllegalArgumentException even though this constant is allowed in
Jlabel. It seems I`m only allowed to have a 0 or 1 for the Argument,
while .LEFT = 3. Any ideas of what could be wrong?

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.JLabel;

public class MailLabel extends JLabel
{
public MailLabel(int x, int y, int width, int height, String
strLabel, MailTextBox txtBox)
{
this.setBounds(new Rectangle(x,y,width,height));
this.setBackground(Color.white);
this.setForeground(Color.blue);
this.setFont(new Font("Dialog", 1, 12));
this.setDisplayedMnemonic(0);
this.setVerticalAlignment(MailLabel.LEFT);
this.setText(strLabel);
this.setLabelFor(txtBox);

}//end first constructor

public MailLabel(String strCaption)
{
super(strCaption);
this.setVerticalAlignment(1);

}//MailLabel constructor

}//end MailLabel class

LEFT is not a valid VERTICAL alignment. LEFT is a HORIZONTAL
alignment. VERTICAL alignment needs to be TOP, CENTER or BOTTOM.
