Hi Ryan, Just wondering if these problems you mention are happening on recent SNAPSHOT builds of SMX4? We have put in a lot of fixes and spent a lot of time testing compatibility with JBI SA's over the past couple of months so I am hoping that some of your issues are addressed. If not please let us know as we're hoping to do a ServiceMix 4.1 release very soon.
