[Springframework-developer] E-Mail Templating Support

[Rob H. <ro...@ca...>]

I have been thinking of adding templated e-mail support to the mail package
in Spring. In this way you can create the body of the mail as a Velocity
template, and have data passed into the mail at runtime to customize it. I
need to think a little more about how this would be implemented but I think
the idea is sound. What does everyone else think?

It seems like a good number of the relatively complex j2ee apps 
eventually end up rolling their own version of something like this (I 
know we did at one of my last gigs, although that was before spring), so 
if you can come up with a decent abstraction this would be worthwhile.
