             Summary: RemoteDelivery: Error upon enqueue lead to email loss
                 Key: JAMES-3787
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3787
             Project: James Server
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Mailet Contributions
    Affects Versions: 3.7.0
            Reporter: Benoit Tellier
             Fix For: 3.8.0


h3. Current situation

When an error happens upon enqueue the email is dropped after an error log.

This leads to email loss.

Incriminated code snipset:

{code:java}
        try {
            queue.enQueue(mail);
        } catch (MailQueueException e) {
            LOGGER.error("Unable to queue mail {} for recipients {}", 
mail.getName(), mail.getRecipients(), e);
        }
{code}

h3. Expected behaviour

The error should be propagated back to the mailet container.

This allows for regular error handling to be applied and allows for a 
customisable behaviour. Default behaviour is to store the email in a mail 
reprository (var/mail/error) thus preventing email loss.
