Howdy, You could write a TriggeringEventEvaluator that keeps a history of logging events and consults it when deciding whether to pass or fail the current event.
I'm not aware of other methods currently built-in to log4j, because this request is against the spirit of logging, which is no dropped messages. You're better off coding your system to log errors once.
