--------------------------------------

             Summary: SMTPAppender support for runtime lookup
                 Key: LOG4J2-1450
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1450
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Benjamin Jaton


http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#RuntimeLookup
"Not all elements support resolving variables at runtime."

The SMTPAppender doesn't support using:

{noformat}{
        "type" : "smtp",
        "name" : "EmailAppender",
        "subject" : "$${email.subject}",
        "to" : "$${email.recipient}",
        "from" : "$${email.from}",
        "smtpProtocol" : "$${email.smtp.protocol}",
        "smtpHost" : "$${email.smtp.host}",
        "smtpPort" : "$${email.smtp.port}",
        "smtpUsername" : "$${email.smtp.username}",
        "smtpPassword" : "$${email.smtp.password}"
}{noformat}

However that would be very useful so that the user doesn't have to reload the 
whole log4j2 configuration when the SMTP parameters have changed.
