Yeah, I think JavaMail intends this to be used case-by-case to notify the
message itself of the events it cares about which affect its own situation,
however if we're serialising the messages themselves we still need to be
able to process the events, in extreme cases possibly days after the
listener was attached.
It would be twigs-in-the-beard-insane if this meant we retained those
objects in memory all that time :-)

My only initial solution to this is to delegate all the listening to the
container in some way, the container could then decide whether or not it
needs to load the message and call it's specific handlers, or if some other
action is more appropriate.

Unfortunately this would also fall down if the container was listening for
events related to a load of messages and James was stopped, unless the
provider could serialise its list of listeners events occuring after a
re-start would not be despatched.

Or perhaps it is possible to make JavaMail despatch every event directly to
the container regardless of whether or not a specific listener was
attached.
