Hi all,

I was surprised by the behavior of asynchronous mailing in zope 2.11.3 
MailHost product. It creates a thread by instance of MailHost by the 
mean of using self.absolute_url(1) as key for the queue_threads dictionnary.

It seems obviously wrong, IMO, if several instances share the same queue 
  directory, mesages actually get sent more than once.

Following is the monkey patch which works fine for me, but the idea is 
straightforward, it's to use the realpath of the smtp_queue_directory as 
the identifier of the thread, ensuring that MailHosts that share the 
same queue directory will also share the same thread for processing mails.

regards,


# un monkey patch du mailhost de zope2.11, ce dernier utilise une thread
# par instance de mailhost pour la getsion de la queue de messages, ce n'est
# pas correct, il faut qu'il garantisse qu'il n'y a qu'une thread par
# répertoire réel de queue.
