Ionel -
It's not a limitation, it's a feature. You don't want to send entire
contents of logs in an email message, you're usually only interested in the
events around the time when an error occurred.
I don't think the threshold is adjustable. When you create an SMTPAppender,
it instantiates a default TriggeringEventEvaluator object that has the ERROR
level hard-coded (at least in 1.2.8). If you want to change it, you'll have
to implement your own TriggeringEventEvaluator and set it up in your log4j
config. It should be easy, here's the source code directly from log4j.
class DefaultEvaluator implements TriggeringEventEvaluator {
/**
Is this <code>event</code> the e-mail triggering event?
<p>This method returns <code>true</code>, if the event level
has ERROR level or higher. Otherwise it returns
<code>false</code>. */
public
boolean isTriggeringEvent(LoggingEvent event) {
return event.level.isGreaterOrEqual(Level.ERROR);
}
}
