that's not the point - nathan is upset - and rightly so - because a known bug that will render james inoperable was not clearly specified; neither in the config nor the readme.
since there are many variances of james running in production environments - which are active contributors to these lists, it makes sense to maintain a gotcha file (not the bug list) of known bugs in their configurations that will bring james down.
what was suggested was to maintain a list of system critical caveats that would point out system configurations that are known to fail.

Easy to say _now_, but if we knew that before, you'd be able to learn it from this list. Comments like this would soon grow into huge useless file noone would ever read. I.e. - as of j2sdk 1.4.2_05, Sun has finally fixed ClassLoader.loadClass() method by adding checkName() method. Since ClassLoader now works according to the specification, code written for j2sdk earlier than 1.4.2_05 may fail with strange ClassDefNotFoundError messages. If you experience this behaviour using Sun java, please downgrade to jdk 1.4.2_03 or earlier. - jdk v this on hpux v that was linked with zlib that may produce buffer underrun. Although no such exploits is known yet, please upgrade to jdk v something before someone breaks into your network by mailing you a picture.
Etc... IMHO this list is _much_ better, and provides me (and as we've just seen, you too) with much better tech support level than any company.
