>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Appenders
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta4
>         Environment: N/A
>            Reporter: Scott Severtson
>            Assignee: Ralph Goers
>             Fix For: 2.0-beta4

>         Attachments: SMTPAppender-always-log-last-event.patch, SMTPManager-buffer-synchronization.patch
>
>
> If multiple error events are logged against the same SMTPAppender/Manager at the same time, one email will contain both error messages, while the second will be empty (no events).
> The original SMTPAppender patch included synchronization against the CyclicBuffer to prevent such simultaneous access from multiple threads. This appears to have been lost in the merge/refactor. Patch (to follow shortly) re-introduces synchronization against the CyclicBuffer in the narrowest possible scope.
