You don't need to add your mailet and matcher to the JAMES.jar file, but
you do need to do a couple of small edits to the JAMES.conf.xml file.
Do a search in this file for the tag <mailetpackages> and in here add a
new mailetpackage something like
<mailetpackage>com.yourcompany.mailets.</mailetpackage>
and same thing in the <matcherpackages> tag which is just below.
Then you just need to add the matching rule, probably in the tag
<processor name="transport"> or possibly in <processor name="root"> if
it's doing something a bit higher up the chain (if you look through this
code you should get an idea of how it works). Anyway, within one of these
tags you need to add your own <mailet> tag something like
<mailet match="MyMatcher" mailet="MyMailet">
<paramName1>paramValue2</paramName1>
<paramName2>paramValue2</paramName2>
<notice>some logging if you like</notice>
</mailet>
Then that should be it, as long as the class root for your compiled class
is in the classpath when james is started up.
