> Occasionally, an appender stops appending. This problem is fixed simply by re-saving the config file with no changes.
> 
> I've experienced this with the SMTP appender and rolling file appender.

> I am using log4net version 1.2.0.30714.

> I am using a console application, MS .NET framework version 1.1.4322.573
