Hi Ionel, maybe you could post your hole config-file... You could also add another appender to the class to want to send mails and watch if something is loggeg there. I configured the SMTPAppendern today, and had the problem that all other appenders except this one worked. My mistake was, that I had a log4j.ar within my WEB-INF/lib and _two_ different versions in shared/lib. After removing them, everything worked fine.
