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

I like the idea... The question is should we apply the patch before tagging the 
svn for 0.3 release or after ?

Allow exceptions from a ContentHandler

                Key: MIME4J-16
                URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-16
            Project: Mime4j
         Issue Type: Improvement
           Reporter: Jukka Zitting
        Assigned To: Norman Maurer
        Attachments: MimeException.patch


There is currently no good way for a Mime4j ContentHandler to indicate that it 
has failed to process a message event and that no further events should be 
generated. Compare this with for example the SAX ContentHandler interface that 
allows implementing classes to throw SAXExceptions.
Being able to throw such processing exceptions is important for example for a 
handler that wants to incrementally store a message in a backend store like a 
relational database or a JCR content repository.
My proposal is to add a new MimeException exception class and allow it to be 
thrown from any of the ContentHandler methods. Such a change would be 
incompatible with any parser and other classes that call the ContentHandler 
methods (even indirectly, for example through the MimeStreamParser class), but 
existing classes that implement the ContentHandler interface would not be 
affected.
