Maybe the spooler code needs to get reviewed, but I think this could get solved by a HOWTO... set your debug to this level, tail this debug file, and then add <mailet match="All" class="Null"> in the appropriate place in the processors so messages get deleted instead of getting sent or stuck in someone's mailbox.

Sometimes people write big architecture or whitepapers and put those out in PDF, but otherwise we're looking to put stuff on the website. Check out the xdocs directory so you can see how we use velocity to abstract out the nav bar and other design stuff. > I'm not against James retying a failed delivery.

Ok, yeah that's a big bug in the retry code... it shouldn't be retrying the same message over and over. The RemoteDelivery mailet should be sticking messages back in the queue and not retrying them for some time duration. Are you using the latest nightly build? This sounds like an old bug.
