Hey Jon,
I took some time last night to scan through some of the source in the
Turbine CVS tree but I wasn't able to find the code where a JSP is being
called from within Turbine or where the response data is buffered in
Turbine.
Could you point me to classes and methods I should be looking at. It would
help a great deal.
Regards,
Sasha.

Solution 4)
Use Turbine as your Controller. Turbine is a servlet that essentially
proxy's connections to a JSP page. Process looks like this:
Request -> Turbine -> JSP Page is executed -> Response is sent
data is buffered in Turbine
It is possible within Turbine to directly call a JSP page to be rendered and
pass in the right req/res objects to generate the page.
This is a model which you could either use or emulate.
Note: Velocity is a FAR FAR FAR better solution for this because unlike JSP,
Velocity was designed to be used as more than just a Servlet template
system. You can therefore *easily* use Velocity to process your email
template to send the email...
@see <http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/ymtd/ymtd-embedded.html>
You make the decision.
