When multiple mail services are deployed they all share the same settings.

Please forgive me if I've posted this to the incorrect component or failed to find an existing bug, I did look.

I'm porting our applications from Jboss 4.2.3 and found the following problem injecting mail sessions in EJBs and Servlet components.

I have several mails sessions configured. For example

<mbean code="org.jboss.mail.MailService" name="jboss:service=MyMailServer1">
<attribute name="JNDIName">foo/MyMailServer1</attribute>
<attribute name="User">myuser</attribute>
<attribute name="Password">myuserpw</attribute>
<attribute name="Configuration">
<configuration>
..
</configuration>
</attribute>
<depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends>
</mbean>

The jndi tree is created and all is present and correct.

@Resource(name="MyMailServer1",mappedName="foo/MyMailServer1")
private Session session;

Returns the default mail session (java:/Mail). When I removed the java:/Mail session jboss find the last session from the configuration and arbitrarily injects it. I also tested this placing another configuration after the java:/Mail config, and the result was that the session configured below (i.e. last) was referenced.

In short to recreate the bug.

Create 2 additional mail sessions in a *-service.xml file. Deploy a servlet, ejb or other component that supports @Resource. Attempt to inject one of the custom sessions (not java:/Mail using @Resource(mappedName="[jndi name]".

I also attempted to force the issue using a resource-ref in jboss.xml matching the resource-ref-name with the @Resource(name=".") and using the jndi-name (in case the usage of mappedname as been changed since 4.2.3. ) With no result.

Assuming this is a real bug, workarounds?
