dynamic configuration, was: Message path tracing

[Richard O. Hammer]

To suggest a simple approach, I suppose it would be possible to add 
lines such as the following to RemoteManagerHandler.parseCommand():

        } else if (command.equals(START_PER_MESSAGE_LOGGING)) {
            return doSTARTPERMESSAGELOGGING(argument);
        } else if (command.equals(STOP_PER_MESSAGE_LOGGING)) {
            return doSTARTPERMESSAGELOGGING(argument);
These commands would set a publicly accessible boolean variable. 
Logging routines would test that variable to govern their behavior. 
Access to the variable does not need to be synchronized, and no server 
restart is needed as far as I can see.

But would such an implementation go against one of the design goals of 
James?

 In theory with JMX you can manage your James configuration, and maybe 
trigger a server restart.  Not sure though as I haven't kept tabs on 
that development.
