log4net send several log emails instead of just one.

Question

hi,

 

I have a logger implemented from log4net. Wich works fine. However, it doesn;t just send one email with all the log information. It send an email for each log message. The problem lies in the time between the log moments  ( a vew seconds). The system probebly thinks it is done logging so it send an email after that does do some more logging and email that again.

is There a way to implement a timespan or something. So i can say if you haven't logged anything for 3 minutes than send the email.

 

here is my config from log4net and it is about the EmailAppender:
