Re: [xmlblaster] queuing and dispatching messages

[Michele Laghi <laghi at swissinfo.org>]

Hi again,
there is another possible approach:

you could write a MIME Publish plugin which keeps the messages for 
itself. By using a scheduler (for example quartz 
http://quartz.sourceforge.net/) the plugin could republish the message. 
If the receiver of the message needs to respond to the sender, you 
should put the sender address in the Client Properties (since now 
xmlBlaster will consider the sender of the message the the plugin).

Hope that helps
Michele
