I send mail using a custom class. my code looks like:
try {
.....
}catch (Exception e) {
String content=....//create mail body basing on contxt info and
exception
Mailer.sendMail(content);
}
sendMail spawns a thread in order to do an async send.
I looked at SMTP appender and it seems that it works accumulating
messages in a buffer and then sending the email if a class implementing
TriggeringEventEvaluator returns true. If so this a very good point to
start since I can reuse the buffer (changing its recycling buffer) and
the trigger logic.
Thanks a lot,
Giovanni
How do you send emails right now? I can't think of a way to do this
without writing an appender. I think the SMTPAppender send some of
the logs before the error but probably not exactly what you want.

I do not use an email appender, but a java method.If I correctly
understand your proposal I have to write a custom appender anyway ,i.e.
standard log4j distribution does not provide a solution for my problem,
is it right?
