Asynchronous email-sending with SMTPAppender
--------------------------------------------
Key: LOG4NET-16
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-16
Project: Log4net
Type: Improvement
Components: Appenders
Environment: From sourceforge - 689368
Reporter: Nicko Cadell
I would like to suggest that
the SMTPAppender have a, perhaps optional,
asynchronous methodology for sending email, so
there would not be a pause in the application's main
logical thread of execution when the digest of logging
messages is ready to be sent.
Perhaps a property could denote whether another thread
sent the email asynchronously or not.
Perhaps using the asynchronous approach could be
configurable via the configuration file.
I think the wait that occurs when the send operation is in
the main thread is not desireable and can be quite
considerable. If sending on another thread where
supported, I believe it should be the default behaviour.
regards,
carl
