M3-SNAPSHOT: mail queue management

["USHAKOV, Sergey" <s-...@yandex.ru>]

Hi all,

being a newbie with JAMES, I have currently an instance of JAMES running in 
test/semi-production mode.

Knowing for sure that some of the mails get occasionally "stuck" inside the 
server, I have made an attempt to explore and manage the mail queues using 
JConsole.

Under the branch "org.apache.james/component/queue/spool" I have found an 
manageable object that showed several items being present in the queue. I 
was able to browse them. I was also offered several ways to remove them, but 
that did not fit my intentions :)

Having made severals stops and restarts of the server, I eventually managed 
to reduce the number of the items in the queue from 26 to 2. With every 
restart the "mailetcontainer.log" reported that some of the mails were 
successfully delivered or sent out.

But it's beyond my understanding what are the remaining mails doing silently 
in the queue. Why some of them get delivered upon restart, while others stay 
in the queue? Is there any facility for not removing a mail item, but rather 
re-activating its processing by the spool manager?

Any ideas, including a push towards an appropriate manual, woulld be most 
appreciated.

Regards,
Sergey
