If you would't mind, would you please apply the fix (from the other thread),
if you get to it before I do tomorrow?

Same thing.  We need to avoid BlockContext.

Serge indicates that he wants to expose JNDI in the Mailet API to gain
access to resources.  If you want to respond to that, please change the
subject.  :-)

I'm not at all in favor of the particular direction being taken for this
bounce handler, but I still have more reading to do.  It seems to me that it
is attempting to build a pipeline within in a mailet, rather than take
advantage of matchers, mailets and the processor pipeline.  My current
belief, which still begs more reading, is that there will be good code, but
that the code related to his complex configuration is going to be wasted.
