Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-473:
-----------------------------------------
I've just tried to apply your patch and there are issues:
Your patch does not apply neatly to current trunk, please make your patches
such that they are based on the trunk root path and apply to trunk.
The more concerning issue is that even though you have added properties and
attributes, they are not used anywhere. The patch doesn't add anything that
will use that file extension if it is provided, does it?
Cheers
> Option for file extension in SmtpPickupDirAppender
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4NET-473
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-473
> Project: Log4net
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.2.13
> Reporter: Albin Sunnanbo
> Attachments: SmtpPickupDirAppender-fileextension.patch
>
>
> Especially on Windows file extensions are very handy, if you give the output
> files the `eml` extension you can just double click the file to open the mail
> in outlook.
> I have added a `FileExtension` option to the `SmtpPickupDirAppender` that can
> be used to specify a file extension for the generated files.
> Although a default value of `eml` would be nice I have preserved backwards
> compatibility of no file extension by default.
