jmx-console unable to output XML-based configuration
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-7954
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7954
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: JMX/Web Console
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-5.1.0.GA
            Reporter: Will K
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse


I have not made any changes to the "mail-service.xml" file. So in an attempt to configure the mail service (org.jboss.mail.MailService; jboss, service=Mail) from the JMX console, the "Configuration" attribute doesn't display the mail-service configuration correctly. After some further investigation, it seems that the jmx-console has a problem displaying XML-based configuration. 

The configuration in question is the file, "mail-service.xml" under the *deploy* directory. 

The jmx-console fails to display the XML configuration correctly, probably because of the double quotes. Here is the original and default configuration.

{code:xml}
<configuration>
  <!-- Change to your mail server prototocol -->
  <property name="mail.store.protocol" value="pop3"/>
  <property name="mail.transport.protocol" value="smtp"/>

  <!-- Change to the user who will receive mail  -->
  <property name="mail.user" value="nobody"/>

  <!-- Change to the mail server  -->
  <property name="mail.pop3.host" value="pop3.nosuchhost.nosuchdomain.com"/>

  <!-- Change to the SMTP gateway server -->
  <property name="mail.smtp.host" value="smtp.nosuchhost.nosuchdomain.com"/>
  
  <!-- The mail server port -->
  <property name="mail.smtp.port" value="25"/>
  
  <!-- Change to the address mail will be from  -->
  <property name="mail.from" value="nobody at nosuchhost.nosuchdomain.com"/>

  <!-- Enable debugging output from the javamail classes -->
  <property name="mail.debug" value="false"/>
</configuration>
{code}

||Attribute Name ||Access ||Type ||Description ||Attribute Value||
|Configuration |RW |org.w3c.dom.Element |MBean Attribute. |<configuration> <!-- Change to your mail server prototocol --> <property name=|
