Attached is a version of james-server.xml to configure James for daily
server logs. It appears to work so far. If it works overnight, and no one
has any objections, I'll commit to the CVS, both v2.1 and HEAD.

Subject: RE: Log File Rotation
Serge,
I'll work on it ... looks like we need something like:
<file id="default">
<filename> ... </filename>
<format> ... </format>
<append>true</append>
<rotation type="unique" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd" suffix=".log">
<or>
<date>dd</date>
</or>
</rotation>
</file>
That should do daily rotation. Will experiment. We might also need to
change the filename to eliminate the suffix, which may from from the
rotation tag. Will check the code.

[switching to dev]
Shouldn't we change James log files to rotate by default so they can't grow
unchecked? Is this logger feature available in what we're using with the
2.1 branch? I would +1 to changing it to rotate for the 2.1.1 release.
