I think using XML/JNDI for mailet configuration may be heavy weight. A simple DTD as suggested earlier (by Danny? Aaron ? not sure) may be good enough. However if JNDI/XML is the direction to take, DSML (or subset) may be good candidate for Schema. It provides XML mapping to directory information and there are DSML providers for JNDI..
