Norman,

You understand it perfectly.

When you have complex processing, it is very useful to see where the
bottlenecks are, where some processors are failing, and where the most
traffic is flowing in your logic tree.  This gives you a much better idea of
how email is flowing through the james server.

For simple email servers, this would be not very useful.  For large
applications however, I believe that it is very useful.

sincerely,

Terry
