Stefan Bodewig commented on LOG4NET-330:
----------------------------------------
My first guess is your mail appender is somehow throwing exceptions early on
(or even later) and your service does some INFO level logging when it start.
Does you service send out any mails after it has started? I.e. does the
appender work or does your service only start because it never uses the
appender?
Any chance you can enable internal debugging?
