James Perkins commented on LOGMGR-135:
--------------------------------------

This can be tricky to get right is the main problem. Logging is configured before anything else in the container. You can see in that example that it attempts to initialize from JNDI and if the session can't be initialized nothing is logged. If a failure occurred before the mail subsystem was up and running then the error would never be handled with this handler. Nothing would be logged via this handler until both EJB, JNDI and mail services are started.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think {{org.jboss.ejb.client.naming}} is for remote EJB JNDI lookups. This means that both the EJB and mail subsystems would be required for the log handler to work. Maybe that's not a huge deal.

> It would be useful if there were a built-in EmailHandler that uses wildfly/jboss default email service.
> This thread: https://developer.jboss.org/wiki/CreatingACustomLoggingHandlerInJBOSSAs710Final
> suggests an approach but having an "official" handler would certainly be more robust.
