== Configure Postage ==
- TBD
+ At startup, you can provide Postage with a configuration file on the command line.
+ The configuration file is split up into sections called ''scenarios''.
+ Each scenarios stands for one postage run with a set of result files.
+ You would typically choose one scenario to be run, but you can run an arbitrary sequence of scenarios.
+
+ See the configuration file distributed with Postage for detailed documentation.
+ You'll find postage.xml in config/ or in svn at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/postage/trunk/src/main/config/postage.xml .
+
+ For your own scenario just copy/paste an existing scenario, give it a new ID and start modifying it.

+ Existing scenarios cover
+
+ ||debug || used in Postage development||
+ ||release || to test a James build before release||
+ ||release_james512 || test case to reproduce JIRA JAMES-512||
+ ||extended_resources || scenario which takes more from James than the default resources||
== Running ==
