-------------------------------------
Summary: Improve error handling when mailetContainer misses a
processor
Key: JAMES-3804
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3804
Project: James Server
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Mailet Contributions
Affects Versions: 3.7.0
Reporter: Benoit Tellier
Fix For: 3.8.0
Today, if I specify a mailet pointing to a processor that do not exist, James
will start, and the failure will be managed at runtime: upon processing, each
mail needed to be processed by the unspecified processor will instead go to the
error processor.
Recovering data from such a failure is quite a journey in itself.
Example of such configuration:
{code:java}
<mailet matcher="All" class="ToProcessor">
<processor>notFound</processor>
</mailet>
{code}
Instead of handling such failures at runtime, we could instead abort James
startup.
Given we add a new method on the mailet interface, for a mailet to give the
list of processor it needs, we can trivially implement such a check in the
mailet container.
*Definition of dome*: Have an integration test with configuration specified
above, james should fail to start.
