Reporting Application Errors by Email (O'ReillyNet)

Sean C. Sullivan shows how to send error messages via email in an O'Reilly article. "Even if your application logs an error to a local file, the developer doesn't know there's a problem until a user notices it and sends the log file back. It can be more useful for apps to email their own error messages back. And as Sean C. Sullivan explains, it's not hard to do with either log4j or java.util.logging."
