>                 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
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.8.0
>
>          Time Spent: 20m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> 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.
