Actually both are under consideration, I believe that the changes we're (actually 
not!) discussing will make writing a container easier, *and* that we may then well 
produce such a container and a standalone run-time for it as a mailet test-bed for 
developers to use to de-bug their mailets.

Potential features would be for the container to run *usefully* in a debugger and to 
process mail placed manually in a file-system spool, neither of which are exactly 
possible with James.
