[jira] [Comment Edited] (LOG4NET-402) SMTP Appender keeps sending me emails

["Darion Mapp (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-402?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13802265#comment-13802265 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------

Could the following code in the class de-constructor (see below) be causing the emails to be sent? In the setup stated above would calling flush on the smtp appender trigger the email or would it treat this as an internal log full event and just discard the unwanted DEBUG and INFO entries given that the evaluator was not triggered? 

ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
var logger = log.Logger as Logger;
if (logger != null)
{
	foreach (IAppender appender in logger.Appenders)
	{
		var buffered = appender as BufferingAppenderSkeleton;
		if (buffered != null)
		{
			buffered.Flush(); //Can this be done with a smtp appender and not get a email. This is needed for the other file appenders. 
		}
		
	}
}

> I want to receive an email from the system when a log level of ERROR or above occurs and i want to get the last 50 events of any level sent including the error event. for the life of me I can't figure out how to stop log4NET from sending me a email every 5 minutes with the past 50 events none of which is an error (errors are rear).
